Canada came away with the win, but that match probably made Denmark’s dream of pulling off an upset less likely with the Canadian team already being taught the lesson that you can’t take any team lightly. At the 3:08 mark of the first period, Denmark took its first penalty, something the team knew it couldn’t do if it wanted to maintain its slim hopes of winning. It ...
