Seeding[edit]

Is the seed list fixed or will there still be changes for economic reasons as in the past? --2003:E4:7BD2:9700:F874:FDD6:30AF:B1A6 (talk) 01:37, 21 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Playoff[edit]

Given that the playoff format will no longer use a fixed "tree" or "bracket," but will rather re-seed after the quarterfinals, I wonder whether it should be redrawn. Right now it looks as though the winners of A1/B4 and B2/A3 will necessarily play in the Semifinals, but that is not so. One suggestion would be to do something like for the years when the Stanley Cup Playoffs reseeded in the '90s and '00s. MrArticleOne (talk) 20:53, 20 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

that is a good suggestion.18abruce (talk) 21:58, 20 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Should we use the "re-seeding" bracket? Kante4 (talk) 19:22, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I think so, yes. I think that what was developed for the Stanley Cup format from the '90s to the '00s did a good job of visually communicating the concept of re-seeding. Of course, there they still maintained separate "pools" of Eastern and Western Conference teams, which is not the case here, but the concept is the same. This design would just look like a half of the Stanley Cup design from those years. MrArticleOne (talk) 21:37, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@MrArticleOne and 18abruce: URunICon (talk · contribs) made the change, which is enough or not? Click Kante4 (talk) 15:16, 22 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Sure, I think this is very helpful. If I had one other suggestion, I would spread out the Semifinal boxes so they're flush with the top and bottom of the top and bottom Quarterfinal boxes. So, the bottom line of the 2/3 Semifinal box would be flush with the bottom line of the Finland/Sweden box, and the top line of the 1/4 box would be flush with the top line of the Canada/Switzerland box. But that's arguably more of an aesthetic preference, because I think as-is, eliminating the connecting lines does the job. MrArticleOne (talk) 23:56, 22 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

2022 Olympic qualifying?[edit]

The article doesn't mention it but, it seems, the top eight of this tournament are directly qualified for the 2022 Olympic tournament, according to a number of (reliable) German sources like USA hieven DEB-Team ins Viertelfinale, Deutschland vorzeitig im Viertelfinale and Das deutsche Eishockey ist auf einem guten Weg. Is this correct? Turismond (talk) 22:40, 20 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

That is incorrect, what the articles are implying is that performance in this tournament will give teams a ranking within the top eight following this tournament, which should grant direct entry to the Olympics. That in itself is problematic since the IIHF has not announced whether the rankings following this world championships, or next year's, will be used. Pyeonchang used the championship three years in advance, Turin, Vancouver, and Sochi all used the championship two years in advance. The announcement is overdue, presumably because of issues related to China's inclusion and poor play (my opinion), so it is possible there have been reports already in european publications.18abruce (talk) 00:32, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Finland on the quarterfinals ladder[edit]

Can't the situation still be different if America gets an OTW on Canada?

They would be second in a 3-way tie, if i am correct. Kante4 (talk) 14:16, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
That is correct, no matter what the outcome of the Canada-USA game Finland ends up in 2nd place.18abruce (talk) 17:19, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

PDF documents[edit]

Can anyboody give a link of IIHF website, where are to read all of the documents of WC 2019 in pdf format? I cannot find them here. I seek the pdf documents for example concerning all of the statistics, awards and lists of three best players of each team at the tournament. Lowdown (talk) 16:30, 28 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Here is the menu for nearly all IIHF tournaments and reports.18abruce (talk) 21:20, 28 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Thank You very much. That is what I exactly wanted to find. Lowdown (talk) 09:09, 31 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

NOTE all reports for this championship are currently unavailable, and for a change it is not Kolbertbot's fault; the IIHF has done something that only affects this one.18abruce (talk) 18:56, 25 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
