After achieving their highest placement (fifth) in their time in the tournament, Team Denmark found itself in the relegation round last year. They defeated Belarus twice in closely contested games, and are certainly looking for a bounce-back year.
Once again helmed by Olaf Eller, the team sees a number of returnees: a goalie, three defencemen, and six forwards, including Golden Knights draft pick and last year's team scoring leader, Jonas Røndbjerg.
The team is back among familiar foes in Group A, where they'll once more face off against Canada, Czech Republic, Russia, and Switzerland.
