Denmark has secured a 4-2 victory over Latvia, fueled by a standout performance from goaltender Frederik Andersen. According to Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet, Andersen recorded 33 saves to lead his squad to the win.
The result carries significant implications for the final standings of Pool C. Following Denmark's victory, the path to the top of the group now rests on the outcome of the upcoming matchup between Germany and the United States. The scenarios for the pool winner are now clearly defined based on the regulation result of that contest.
Per Friedman, if Germany defeats the USA in regulation time, Germany will officially win Pool C. However, the United States maintains control over their own destiny; if the USA manages to reach overtime or a shootout, they will clinch the pool title regardless of whether they win or lose the game in the extra session.
