Hockey continues to grow throughout the world as teams that have rarely seen the top division are getting their shot but the division between the best teams and everyone else remains.
Group B will have plenty of battles all over the group as some teams are just hoping to extend their time in the top division while others look to make up for falling short of some very high expectations.

The World Championships continues to see teams without their best players making it hard to be a best on best tournament but the best teams prove that the definition of a great team is more about depth than top level skill.
Group B is another one with favourites but with only two major powers there is a lot more up in the air as the group could see a big battle for the playoffs with more than a few teams in the hunt.
