Juniors bring Ukraine on 10-year high

Ukraine won the 2018 IIHF Ice Hockey U18 World Championship Division I Group B on home ice in Kyiv and will for the first time since 2007 be among the top-16 ice hockey nations in an IIHF category next year.

Coming in as the fifth-seeded team, the Ukrainians were not among the natural favourites despite home-ice advantage in the Palace of Sports. But this time the juniors in yellow-and-blue left behind nations usually placed ahead of them and completed their run for gold with a 6-0 win against Romania in front of 5,000 fans.

It didn’t go that well from the very beginning. The Ukrainians lost the first game to Japan 1-0 on Taiga Abe’s third-period goal and with a 32-save shutout by Eiki Sato. But then the winning streak started.

On the second game the hosts won a key game against eventual runner-up Austria. The 5-3 victory in a game they were outshot 41-25 meant Ukraine had the advantage in the tie-breaker with Austria, which also had 12 points from four games with the only loss coming against Ukraine.

Austria held a 2-1 and 3-2 lead but Ukraine turned the game with three unanswered goals in the third frame. Two goals came from Hlib Krivoshabpin.

After victories against Hungary (4-3) and Italy (3-1) the Ukrainians were tied for first place with Austria and just needed to regulation-time win against last-ranked Romania. They got what they needed.

Austria recovered from the loss to Ukraine and also finished the tournament with a 3-1 record but couldn’t make up for the lost head-to-head game. With Dmytro Danylenko and Felix Morozov Ukraine had two players among the top-5 scorer. Danylenko was tied with Austria’s Benjamin Baumgartner, who also had thee goals and five assists.

Japan beat Italy 3-2 on the last day thanks to Taiki Takebe’s overtime winner to secure the bronze medals. Hungary finished fourth, Italy fifth and Romania will go down after fix mostly clear losses in the tournament.

For Ukraine the win is the biggest success in many years. It means a 17th-place finish overall in the U18 category and a top-16 spot for next year when Ukraine will compete in the Division I Group A and replace Slovenia. The last time the U18 team finished higher was in 2005 when it was 16th and the men’s and U20 national teams were among the top-16 in 2007.

Thanks, we are really pleasantly surprised by the results of the boys, to be honest it is a real surprise for us all, we did not expected that at all, because we knew that the last year team was much more stronger than this years one. and peoples were afraid prior the tournament if we´ll be even able to maintain in top division, but the kids revolted against the odds and are showing great team spirit and heart.

    • 2028 Team Size Projection – Jan 2026 Update   Here’s an update to my 2028 Team Size Projection. While I touch upon major events changes may occur due to results in smaller events. Additionally, several sports released their qualification document so there may be cases where I have to update the projection. I will only include sports where there is an update.   Here is the link to the updated sheet.     Aquatics (Water Polo) The Men’s European Championships saw take gold. The victory moved Serbia up a few places between European nations. With that said, no one fell out of Olympic qualification with the likes of France and Romania still on the outside looking in. remains on the edge.   Athletics (Marathon) Both the Xiamen and Osaka marathons were held this month along with a few other smaller events. While there were a few changes in the rankings, in terms of Olympic projections gains an athlete in the men’s marathon at the expense of   Badminton Major tournaments include the Malaysia Open and India Open. New updates which affected projections include the women’s doubles where overtook . As Polina Buhrova is also scheduled to compete in the singles event, an additional spot has been open. Other changes in the women’s singles was loses one of their quotas. and benefit from those losses.   Indonesia’s loss on the women’s side is offset by gaining a second player in the men’s singles. This puts   on the outside.   Canoeing The qualification document for both Slalom and Sprint were released/updated. No significant changes were found in the Sprint update. Slalom had significant changes relative to 2024 where the initial quotas will be decided by rankings and kayak cross will now have significant quotas being allocated. After adjustment, the following nations lost a quota; Andorra, Chinese Taipei, Ireland, New Zealand, North Macedonia, Slovakia, and Sweden. The following nations gained a quota; Canada, China, France, Italy, South Africa, Spain, and Tunisia.   Cricket The Women’s T20 World Cup Qualifier was held. No changes to the projection.   Equestrian (Dressage & Jumping) Various World Cup events were held. No changes to the projections were made.   Fencing We had two Grand Prix this month, one for epee and the other for sabre. In men’s epee, overtakes . On the women’s side, the United States moved into the top 4 in the team ranking, pushing Estonia down to fifth. This pushed out of Olympic qualification while takes the Americas quota. This caused a downstream effect on the individual side as Ukraine takes an individual quota and Canada relinquishes their quota, additionally, gained a quota while lost one.   In men’s sabre, now takes the Asian team quota pushing down to just an individual quota. No changes were found in women’s sabre.   Handball Four men’s continental championships were held this month. finished top in Africa while a couple of upsets were saw in South America and Asia where and won over and respectively. Despite their wins, they currently haven’t leapfrogged into being projected to qualify. We’ll see how they perform at the World Championships.   Europe saw finish fourth. This was enough to push it into Olympic qualification projection. They pushed out.   Rowing The qualification document was released. There was a change in boat allocation relative to 2024 and the continental qualifier was slightly different than what I projected. Additionally, I assumed coastal rowing would allow 2 men and 2 women to compete in its three events, but the max is 1 man and 1 woman. This has caused significant changes to the projections.   Overall, the United States lost four quotas. Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, Lithuania, New Zealand, Norway, and Spain lost two quotas and Algeria, Argentina, Croatia, Cuba, Egypt, Kazakhstan, Netherlands, Portugal, Tunisia lost one quota.   The following nations have gained two athletes; Japan, Morocco while the following nations gained one athlete; Angola, Austria, Belgium, Chile, Chinese Taipei, Cote d’Ivoire, Denmark, Estonia, Kuwait, Latvia, Mexico, Romania, Philippines, Paraguay, Puerto Rico, South Africa, South Korea, Switzerland, Togo, Uzbekistan, Vanuatu   Rugby Sevens Fixing a couple of mistakes. First on the men, actually has the Asian quota over and in the women as is essentially shutting down the program, I think it is only right to remove them until they decide to compete again. This means is also projected to qualify.   As for new updates, we saw the third tier SVNS compete, which brought no new updates and the Singapore SVNS. I also didn’t add the Dubai or Cape Town SVNS in my calculations. For both, while there was some shuffling no one ultimately fell out.   Shooting The Asian Shotgun Championships were held this month. A few top shooters were missing. The only change to the projection is is set to qualify in women’s trap, pushing out   Squash The Tournament of Champions was held this month. Additionally, the qualification document was released. There was some restriction as to how many nations can send two players and this sport will offer universality quotas.   The following nations lost an athlete quota; Colombia, France, Great Britain, Hong Kong, Malaysia, and New Zealand. The following nations gained an athlete quota; Canada, Pakistan, Spain (x2), Switzerland, Ukraine   Triathlon The qualification document was released. There are a few changes relative to 2024. Projection changes include: Losses to Hong Kong and Slovenia and gains for Austria and China.   Weightlifting The qualification document was released. One change to be made was the reallocation process for host nation quotas. Due to this, El Salvador Iraq, Palau, Sri Lanka, Tuvalu, and Vanuatu lost quotas while Australia, China, Dominican Republic, Iran, and Samoa (x2) gained quotas.   Wrestling The qualification document was released. There were some significant changes to the qualification process including using the world rankings and the final qualifier only consisting of non-qualified nations. The projection changes are as follows; losses to Belarus, Bulgaria, China, Georgia, Germany, Hungary, Japan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Mongolia, Russia, South Korea, Sweden, and Turkey.   Belgium and Lithuania gained 2 quotas while American Samoa, Austria, Estonia, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Latvia, Madagascar, Spain, and Turkmenistan gained 1 quota.
