Denmark shocked the United States with a goal from center ice in the first period of Saturday's round-robin contest.

Nicholas Jensen ripped a shot from just inside the red line that goaltender Jeremy Swayman couldn't track. The stunning goal gave Denmark a 2-1 lead that it carried into intermission.

Swayman started after Connor Hellebuyck won USA's opening game on Thursday. Hellebuyck, the back-to-back Vezina Trophy winner, is expected to return to the net Sunday against Germany.

The long-range goal ultimately didn't come back to hurt the Americans, who went on to claim a 6-3 victory in the contest and improve to 2-0 in round-robin play at the Milan Cortina Games.
