Youth Hockey Championship. Calendar and results of matches

Traditionally, one of the most interesting hockey tournaments of the year is starting – the U-20 World Youth Championship in the elite division. The tournament will be held in the USA from December 26 to January 5.

The American national team will defend its title, which the team won a year ago in Canada. But the Maples will try to rehabilitate themselves after the failure.

The national teams are divided into two groups of 5 teams, the top 4 will go to the playoffs, and the last two will move on to the battle for survival in the elite.

Group A: USA, Sweden, Slovakia, Switzerland, Germany
