Still not any close from the world record/Guiness record/everything record 139 shots on goal in that SVK-BUL Vancouver qualifier death metal https://stats.iihf.com/Hydra/166/IHW166907_74_4_0.pdf, but still pretty impressive. All hail GB goaltender

I almost would have missed this event, if i wasn't scrolling through the forum. Since when is this name change? Did the word "Universiade" sound too Russian for them..

They use the terms interchangeably, but local organizers seem to prefer “World University Games.” (Probably because it better defines the event.)
