HERNING, Denmark — The United States dominated host Denmark 4-0 for a second straight victory at the world ice hockey championship on Saturday. Latvia outlasted Norway to win 3-2 in overtime, and Switzerland prevailed over Austria 3-2, also in overtime. After an opening win over favourite Canada in a penalty shootout, the U.S. had an easier time against Denmark. With eight minutes remaining in the second, Austria defenceman Steven Strong received a hit from Sven Andrighetto and was taken off on a stretcher. Dominic Zwerger scored the first goal for Austria on the subsequent power play and Manuel Ganahl equalized in the final period, forcing overtime.
