it's a second tier tournament for those teams who don't take part into the hockey pro league (basically it's the old world league without the top teams)...

In the Hockey Series all countries can participate, except those who dispute the Hockey Proleague. The 1st round in 2018 do not play the 9 teams with better rankings for those enrolled in the Open Series

 The 2nd round are 3 regional events with 8 teams each of these 8 teams, 3 would be exempted from the 1st round due to its ranking and 5 from the 1st round.

The first 2 of each regional event classified for the Olympic Qualification Events (in total 6)

If Japan did not earn the Asian continental 12 teams participate in the Olympic Qualification Events: 4 teams from the pro-league-final, +6 Hockey Series +  2 teams of the world ranking. Then there would be  6 qualifiation matches in in the Olympic Qualification Events

If Japan  earn the Asian continental 14 teams participate in the Olympic Qualification Events: 4 teams from the pro-league-final, +6 Hockey Series +  4 teams of the world ranking Then there would be  7 qualifiation matches in in the Olympic Qualification Events

If I get it right (and assuming that only Australia and one of the european Pro League teams will qualifie from their respective contintental championship), three teams from the Pro League will no take part in the OQT ? If so, it's a blessing for second tier countries like France, but also very iodiotic.

You have to consider that 2 more teams qualify to the OQT by ranking, and they will most likely be Pro League teams.
