What a joke...

 

Like, seriously, they are deciding 3/4 of the field *before* publishing the qualification system. ?

 

It was the same also before PC 2018 and Sochi 2014 as well if I remember correctly

There might be a good chance. South Korea was at least a Division I team regular while China is a Division II team, showing no signs of moving up to IB. The women are likely safe though.

The Men´s Ice Hockey Qualification as it stands now.

 

The top 8 nations by the IIHF World Ranking 2019 (After the 2019 IIHF World Championships) are qualified directly

At the moment it´s in this order (It may obviously change depending on the quarterfinals/seifinals/medal matches but the sure thing is it will change only between the 8 concerned teams) :SWE:CAN:RUS:FIN:USA:CZE:SUI and :GER

 

The ranking from 9th place is finalized and official, so we already know the groups for the OQT

 

The Nations ranked 9th-11th ( :SVK:LAT and :NOR ) will host the final qualification tournaments in September 2020 (Classicla round-robin group tournament, every team play once each opponent of it´s group)

 

The final olympic qualification groups are based according the IIHF World Ranking 2019 as follows

Group A :  9th, 14th, 15th, + the lowest ranked team from IIHF WR 2019 qualified from 2nd round  (   :SVK:BLR:AUT + Q2ndR )

Group B :  10th, 13th, 16th, + the second highest ranked team from IIHF WR 2019 qualified from 2nd round ( :LAT:FRA:ITA + Q2ndR )

Groups C:  11th, 12th, 17th, + the highest ranked team from IIHF WR 2019 qualified from 2nd round ( :NOR:DEN:KOR + Q2ndR )

 

Interesting is for example :SLO who participated in both last Olympics tournaments, dropped in the ranking into the 18th place, which means they will have to play already in the second round.

The Only Top Division team that must play already in the 2nd round is :GBR + the newly promoted :KAZ as well.

 

*Remember, this can still change, because of :CHN issue. IIHF promised to China the direct host quota but conditioned it with the need of  visible improvements of Chinese ice hockey. The IIHF congress held this week from today until Saturday in Bratislava will review it and Friday is expected to reveil the final verdict.

This thing will be highly followed not only in China but also especially in Slovakia. since if the host quota will be removed, our team will qualify directly as the 9th nation and in Slovenia, which will be then put directly into the final OQT instead of playing already in the 2nd round and in Denmark who will then host the Group C final Olympic Qualification Tournament)

 

The 1st round start this year in November, the 2nd round next year in February and the Final OQT as mentioned above next year in September (in order to have available NHLers) Only the winners of the 3 Final OQT will qualify for the Olympic Tournament.

Well :SVK has to play qualifying against Belarus and Austria. Because China is in.

I’m of two minds about this. A team that loses 8-0 to Croatia should not be competing at the Olympics. But China is a huge market for ice hockey, and I love the sport, so hopefully it can help there.

Yes this is just so...well, that decision pissed us off that it´s impossible to say how much...becuase I am already more than certain that Belarus will find a way to win in overtime or so against us and destroy our streak of never missing a single Olympic tournament since the independence..and just because  IIHF in one of their weak moments promissed the host direct spot to a FOURTH tier hockey nation lol

 

I mean China ? why ? for everything on earth why ?

 

If they wanted so much to show how China is improving in hockey, They should let us play against them a kinds of qualifying match, (Even in Beijing and without our NHLers, I really don´t mind)..

 

But well, it is how it is, hello double digit blowouts, and we all know how China don´t love to be embarassed, they are going to swallow some hard ridicul shames in 2 years.

Honestly I’m looking forward to China being embarrassed lol. The federation is apparently intent on not naturalizing any players :rolleyes:

Ya, in hindsight South Korea naturalizing half a dozen player was a really good idea. Not only did it get them some better players but it seemed to help improve their existing players, too.

Yeah they played a lot better in this year’s Division I. And they only had 3 naturalized players (as opposed to 6/7).

      A lot of sports have been ruined with rule changes, modern pentathlon has actually better with these rules I think. I would never watch something span over 2 days. Short and quick finals is what most audience want.   Obviously can be optimised further, but this is definitely an excellent job and that's how a sport should be.

      China was not at the Olympics. You played Japan.   Taking any conculsions after 1 match is too early and premature. Norway is definitely by any mean not a punching bag, They are a team relegated from the Top division. Nobody is going to blown them. In the opposite China yes, they were piss poor today, totally harmless, this is not China from the pre and Beijing era, any naturalized player is not in the team anymore, only local girls who had issues even with normal skating and puck control, Was quite embarassing to watch this, but kudos to China they decided to go this harder way and reform their team with local players.   Italy is still the number one favorite for promotion, 3 points against Norway are the first and very important step. Your main games will still be Hungary and France as scripted.

      Italy today beat Norway only 2-1 (and also was a draw in the all shots stats: 28- 26). It doesn't look good for us– our form has probably arrived in February, not now. In my opinion, Slovakia will be the favorite tomorrow – they won 7-0 against China today – and they'll probably were a peak of the form. Personally, I wasn't expecting Italy to advance and I think I was right – it's good that the minimum goal – no relegation – is almost certain. Certainly, today wasn't the same form as in February at the Olympics in the matches against France and China.

      looking at the video and knowing Australia, I think the wind reading was wrong, it was surely a lot more windy than +1.7, but we all know that sometimes these things happen (you're so young, I don't know what you know about the 1988 Olympic Trials in Indianapolis and Florence Griffith Joyner records -still standing )

      I call bullshit on the performances from this race    20.01 to 19.67 would be one thing, we all know how good Gout Gout has been hyped up to be, even though it feels like ridiculously impossible with how steep of an improvement it is… but almost everyone from the race has had ridiculous PB’s, I mean Murphy who’s a 20.41 guy at best is now 19.88. McHugh broke 21 seconds for the first time a month ago, and now he’s going 20.23.   Either an extremely fast track, wrong timing, favourable headwind, not sure what it is.

      This also kind of showed, like last year, the biggest flaw of Pogacar: technique and bike control. The way he was wrestling himself through curve after curve where natural talents like Van Aert and Van der Poel (cyclocross greats, no coincidence) were flying through.
