For the second consecutive game, North Vancouver native and 2023 first overall pick Connor Bedard led the way for Canada. Yesterday against Great Britain, Bedard recorded two goals as Canada won 4-2 and today, he was back at it.
In the first period, Connor Bedard fired home the shot from the blue line and past Danish goaltender Frederik Dichow to give Canada a 1-0 lead. Initially, the call on the ice was 'no goal' because the officials said there was goaltender interference. But after Canada used a coaches challenge, the call was overturned, giving Bedard his third goal of the tournament.
Bedard's second goal of the game against the Danes came early in the third period. He made a nice pass to Dylan Guenther, who took the puck around the net and passed it back in front to Bedard, who tapped it in to give Canada a 3-1 lead.
