The Denmark men's hockey team stunned the Czech Republic in the nation's first-ever Olympic game.
"This is a huge moment for Danish hockey," Denmark coach Heinz Ehlers told NBC after the group-play victory."We are normally not at the Olympics. In May we played a really good world championship. But being able to win a game like this makes all of us very excited and we are so happy and proud right now."
As they should be after what has been a highly-successful debut in the Winter Games, with the Denmark women's team also having earned its first Olympic victory earlier in the week by beating Czech Republic 3-2. The Danish men's team jumped out to an early lead when Markus Lauridsen scored the first Denmark goal after his shot was redirected into the net 11:21 into the first period.
Minutes later, Frans Nielsen buried a penalty shot that was awarded to Denmark during a shorthanded rush, increasing the lead to 2-0 with 2:37 left in the first.
