Quite disappointed by Japan so far, I expected much more from them. They were recently strongly increasing their support for hockey quite a bit, which has started to be reflected in the significantly improved results especially in the younger categories, so far it doesn´t look like that here at all though

Are there any rules which can be used to fill belarus spot in the hext round if IIHF will not allow them to compete?

Will it be a team with the best rankings of the best second-placed team?

Absolutely no one knows. Either it´s the best kept secret on the planet or IIHF themselves have no idea what to do either ... 

 

Seriously, it is a mess

 

for more than a year, they all claimed that even the ninth team from the world ranking would advance directly to the Olympics... and blah, blah, blah...

Now, they claim that Slovakia will definitely have to play the qualifiers, but we still don´t know against who !

 

Who would replace Russia at the Olympics in case of their ban being extended. Whether four from the final qualifying groupwill advance or will they give a wild card to someone, or they will return to the world ranking and move us to Cortina retroactively or what do I know what these enlightened ones in the IIHF will invent ?

 

The same with Belarus, nobody knows who will replace them in Bratislava if they are banned, whether the group will only consist of three teams, or if it will stand a 4 team group will we have four advancing from the current 3rd qualifying round or what ?

 

 

Complete mess, but yeah, nothing of this mess would happened if some IIHF leaders did not shit in their own mouths...

I see the only motivation for them to wait - negotiations with NHL were undergo.

But know they really do not so need russia anymore. 

Thus it would be wise to promote Slovakia direct to the Olympics.

And it looks like after that a redraw of thr groups for the final qualification round will be needed with only 2 teams in one of the groups...

And new host for that group will be needed... as well as 2 more teams.

 

Yes, looks like a mess...
