All 10 teams have arrived. Hockey during the Paralympics lol good thing they didn't schedule it during the Olympics because it would have confused some that hockey is held during the Summer Olympics.

1) The 10 teams are divided into two, tiered, five-team groups A & B in the Preliminary Round.

2) After a single round-robin series in each group, the five teams from Group A and the best three teams from Group B advance to the Playoff Round. 

3) The Quarter-Finals will be played between A1-B3, A2-B2, A3-B1, A4-A5. The winner of each Quarter-Final moves onto the Semi-Finals.

4) In the semi-finals the best-ranked team - criteria: 1) Tier of the group. 2) placement in the group - will play against the lowest-ranked semi-finalist. The 2nd-best ranked semi-finalist will play the 3rd-best ranked semi-finalist.

6) The winner of each Semi-Final game will move onto the Gold Medal Game, while the losers will play in the Bronze Medal Game.

7) The quarter-final losers will play placement games in a knockout format. The winner of the 5th-place game will earn a Group A seeding for next year. The remaining teams (7th to 10th) will be ranked according to 1. the tiered group they played in (A/B), 2. their position within the group, 3. their preliminary-round record (1. points, 2. goal difference, 3. goals scored)..

No idea, I see no TV in Denmark has the rights. But I do believe the organizers will release a general world-wide live stream shortly before the match or so, They did it usually in the past.

 

I´ll keep looking for eventual informations, so I will inform you if I find anything new.

 

 

plus there still a way to find a stream in other way in onhockey.net if nothing official will be available. http://onhockey.tv/index.php?place=sawlive&channel=tvh
