Wild World Championship TSM: It's a trap!
Denmark weaseled their way out of what looked like a classic trap game to collect all three points against Korea.
Denmark vs Korea
First Period
- Denmark playing in the offensive zone
- Except there. Yikes guys.
- Ok that Gatorade commercial is awful. Make it go away.
- Not a lot going on in this game so far, shots are 6-3 for Denmark with five to go in the first.
- Boedker with a pair of chances, but still no dice.
- Matt Dalton is being annoyingly solid in net./
Second Period
- Ah power play time.
- TOOK THEM TO THE LAST FRACTION OF A SECOND, BUT I WILL 100% TAKE IT. FRAAAANNNSSSSS!!!!!
- UHG JENSEN WAS ROBBED.
- God damn it Denmark. (JARED, THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT.)
- Korea giving me heart attacks. Come on boys. YOU BEAT FINLAND. YOU CAN DO THIS.
- Denmark, you HAVE to capitalize on this power play.
- Freddie. Stop it. Denmark stop it. Get your act together. ISTG.
- Oh jeez. Jannik...don't be hurt, please don't be...
- JESPER JENSEN GIVES DENMARK THE LEAD. (Yes, same Jensen who was ROBBED before)
- Oh it was pretty too.
- Good. Denmark (and the crowd) appears to have woken up.
- Oh no...Oh be ok Jesper... (Jesper Jensen Aabo, not the other Jesper Jensen...cause this isn't confusing at alll.) And he took a penalty. This is fine. Everything is fine.
- Thank you Freddo.
- I'm not nervous, you're nervous./
Third Period
- Denmark back at full strength.
- Really Nichlas? That was so unnecessary. Denmark to the kill. gulp
- I don't like this. I don't like this at all.
- GAH.
- Come on, clock...go faster...
- Danish power play with half a period left...come on...
- Get. It. OUT.
- Thanks.
- GET. IT. OUT. DENMARK.
- Five minutes to go...
- Please actually do something on this power play, guys.
- OH MY GOD YES.
- HAAARDDDTTTT. What a play by Nielsen and Hardt. Wow. Just wow.
- Two minutes to go...
- Extra skater for Korea, 1:30 to go...
- Denmark’s player of the game is Philip Larsen
- THAT'S THREE STRAIGHT. THEY'VE LEAPFROGGED LATVIA AND CANADA. THEY'RE SECOND IN THE POOL!! (For now)
- DENMARK WINS 3-1!! /
Highlight of the Game
Jesper Jensen's goal might not have been quite as pretty as the insurance goal, but it was still a good one.
