In a stunning upset, Denmark triumphed over the heavily-favored Canada with a 2-1 victory in the quarter-finals of the World Hockey Championship. Nick Olesen's goal with just 49 seconds remaining sealed the win for Denmark, demonstrating their resilience after Nikolaj Ehlers had equalized late in the third period. Canada, despite a strong showing with 30 shots on goal and a goal from Travis Sanheim, couldn't secure a victory against the determined Danes.

Denmark's Frederik Dichow was instrumental in their success, providing solid goaltending that stifled Canada's offensive efforts. Though Canada had players like Sidney Crosby and Nathan MacKinnon on their roster, they fell short in this crucial match, leading to their elimination from the tournament.
