Denmark eliminates Canada from worlds

[Spyro Gyra]

HERNING, Denmark — The third period of the world hockey championship quarterfinal between Canada and Denmark was dominated by a team that outshot its opponent 22-10 and scored a pair of game-breaking goals less than two minutes apart.

But it was not 28-time champion Canada, captained by Sidney Crosby and loaded with top NHL talent, that showed the killer instinct Thursday at a rocking Jyske Bank Boxen arena.

Plucky tournament co-host Denmark, which needed a shootout victory over Germany on the last day of preliminary round action just to reach the quarterfinals, saw Canada off with a 2-1 victory to the delight of their home fans.

Canada was eliminated despite having a team with several players from its championship roster at this year's 4 Nations Face-Off, including Crosby, 2024 NHL MVP Nathan MacKinnon and goaltender Jordan Binnington.

Denmark? Seriously?

Philip Daneault’s defensive play on the winning goal was… lacking.

Canada was just way too cute throughout; not enough booming point shots for my liking. the longer the game went 0-0 you just knew the Danes had a chance. Danes survived the 1st and then it was a pretty even-steven game. Dichow (the Oils next goalie project ) was solid throughout.

Bunnington can’t even beat Denmark.

Can’t come up with the big save when needed. Sucks

Binnington was great in the game; definitely not on him. Canada just couldn't finish.
