After blowing a 2-0 lead, and then coming back with two goals in 19 seconds to win at the last minute in regulation in the first game, Denmark avoided relegation with a 3-2 shootout win to sweep the best-of-three series.
After being out with a suspension for the first game against Belarus, Danish captain Christian Mathiasen-Wejse returned, and Kasper Krog once more got the start.
The game got off to an inauspicious beginning for the Danes, who took a high sticking call just four seconds in. However, the penalty kill made short work of it. Belarus looked stronger than they head through most of the first game, getting four shots to Denmark's one in the first half of the period.
