The body of a 26-year-old Polish man was found Feb. 28 by crews doing work inside the sewer in the East Jutland area of Denmark, about 167 kilometres west of Copenhagen. The suspects, a 41-year-old Polish man and a 30-year-old Danish woman, were charged with murder on Monday, police said in a statement. Investigators carried out searches at several different addresses. Authorities did not give a motive for the killing. The suspects are scheduled to be in court Tuesday for a closed-door hearing.

Create Account After Toronto's playoff-cursed NHL entry dropped another Great White North entry from the Stanley Cup tournament, star-studded Team Canada was stunned 2-1 by underdog Denmark Thursday, eliminated in the quarterfinal stage of the world men's hockey championship. A group that included Nathan MacKinnon and Sidney Crosby couldn't click on four power-play chances through the game. When Travis Sanheim did score, the Danes didn't fold, while Nicolaj Ehlers and Nick Olesen scored in the final 2:17, Olesen in the final minute on Jordan Binnington. That sent the arena in Herning, Denmark, into a frenzy and a lusty version of the national anthem followed. Frederik Dichow made 38 saves for Denmark, which will meet Switzerland in one semifinal, while the United States takes on Sweden. Canada had played all its games in co-host Stockholm and clearly struggled on the unfamiliar ice of a converted convention centre where Denmark had been for a couple of weeks.

'They had us on our heels and we didn't respond the right way,' Canadian forward Ryan O'Reilly told TSN. 'Tough for us travelling here on a back-to-back (after facing Sweden in Stockholm) and we didn't have our normal jump. But we had a chance to win. 'We have guys like Flower here (retiring alternate goalie Marc-Andre Fleury) and we wanted to win it for him. We let them hang around. You put this jersey on, you expect to win. No one feels good now.' It's a top-four finish for the first time in Denmark's history, but to claim a medal, the team will have to win at least one game in Stockholm on the weekend. 'Just disappointing, we had a great group here,' Crosby said. 'We had all the things to make a deeper run.' This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.

Photo by Bo Amstrup / The Associated Press WILLY WIN A MEDAL? In the end it was William Nylander, not Maple Leafs teammate David Kampf, who was rewarded for a long haul flight to Europe to play for his country at the worlds. Nylander didn't score in Sweden's 5-2 quarterfinal win Thursday over defending champion Czechia, but wasn't needed in that regard and gets to play again. Kampf, who was itching to keep going after being used in just one playoff game by Toronto, saw some rare power play action Thursday. Lucas Raymond scored twice for the Swedes, and former Leafs defenceman Rasmus Sandin had two assists. Nylander was placed right on the first line with centre William Karlsson and Raymond. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. 'It was not a fun way to end our (Leafs) season, so I thought it would be a good time to come here,' Nylander said. 'Playing in Sweden, it doesn't get any better than that.' NET RESULTS While longtime first-line partners Auston Matthews and Mitch Marner could be splitting up, the Leafs have the rare instance of bringing back the same two goalies without a cloud of question marks regarding one or the other's health or ability. Anthony Stolarz and Joseph Woll won 21 and 27 games in regular season, respectively, the first Leafs netminders with multiple playoff victories since the last Cup year of Johnny Bower and Terry Sawchuk. 'He's generally a pretty awesome dude. I enjoy being a friend and teammate before anything else,' Woll said of Stolarz this week. 'Within a team, you want all your relationships to be good. Within a goalie tandem, that's even more important.' This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. Other than being Americans, there was little in common between the two last autumn, with an age difference of five years with the senior Stolarz. 'Myself and Woller were able to push each other all season, we had a great relationship,' Stolarz said. 'I look forward to the opportunity to come back with him next year.' LOOSE LEAFS Leafs forward prospect Easton Cowan and the London Knights open their Memorial Cup schedule this weekend, facing the Quebec League champion Moncton Wildcats on Saturday and the host Rimouski Oceanic on Sunday … Some final Leafs locker clean-out day quotes, starting with Matthews: 'This one stings the most. One game away from being in the final four, the Eastern Conference final. The idea that you're that close to being that close, that one definitely stings.' And Stolarz: 'It sucks the way the season ended, but you get that fire in your belly in the summer and just want to get ready for next season. You're already planning your summer training. Nothing you can do now, just worry about the future.' Lhornby@ X: @sunhornby Toronto Maple Leafs Editorial Cartoons World Hockey Columnists

(Bo Amstrup/Ritzau Scanpix via AP) HERNING, Denmark (AP) — Tage Thompson completed his hat trick with a power-play goal in overtime to give the United States a 6-5 win over Norway after the Americans squandered a four-goal lead at the ice hockey world championship on Wednesday. Norway forced overtime when defenseman Stian Solberg scored with 1:27 left in regulation, as the Anaheim Ducks prospect completed a hat trick of his own. Advertisement Thompson, a Buffalo Sabres center, scored the winner 4:09 into overtime for the U.S., which has eight points in Group B while Norway earns its first point. For the Americans, captain Clayton Keller had a goal and two assists, and Cutter Gauthier and Michael McCarron added a goal each for the U.S. to rebound from a loss to Switzerland. Gauthier put the U.S. 1-0 ahead 4:50 into the game before Keller hit the top corner of the net to double the lead 7:18 into the frame. Gauthier is tied with Canada forward Bo Horvat atop the goal scoring table with four goals. Solberg reduced the deficit to 2-1 on the power play before Thompson and McCarron completed the four-goal period for the U.S. Advertisement Thompson added his second 2:55 into the middle period for a 5-1 lead. Norway was not done, though. Solberg had his second goal on a power play for Norway to trail 5-2 and Martin Ronnild added another one on a breakaway still in the frame. Midway through the third, Noah Steen made it a one-goal game before Norway pulled its goalie for an extra attacker — and Solberg scored to make it 5-5. Columbus Blue Jackets defenseman Zach Werenski had an assist for the U.S. in his first game at the worlds. He arrived Monday but his equipment was delayed and he couldn't play in the 3-0 loss to Switzerland later that day. Werenski is one of three finalists for the Norris Trophy for the the NHL's top defenseman. In Stockholm, Slovakia beat France 2-1. ___ AP sports:
