There wasn’t a ton of tight hockey at the 2025 IIHF World Championship in Sweden and Denmark, but the lead-up to the playoffs got all the more entertaining. The afternoon started with a pair of 5-2 games, with Germany getting a nice boost from Tim Stutzle’s arrival to beat Norway. Latvia, meanwhile, made sure to avoid a collapse against Slovenia, winning the game to improve to 2-1 and move into third place in Group A. The top spot, for now, will belong to Canada, who beat France 5-0.

Credit: Bob DeChiara-Imagn ImagesFor the first time since 2014, NHLers are headed to the Olympics – and that makes the IIHF men’s World Championship even more exciting this month. Many discount the tournament because it’s not best on best. But when Sidney Crosby and Nathan MacKinnon committed to Team Canada, among others, people took notice. It would have been easy to understand if they decided to skip out after winning gold at the 2025 4 Nations Face-Off.

The 2025 IIHF World Championship returned to a four-game schedule on Monday, with Austria, Switzerland, Czechia and Sweden skating out to victories. We saw our first shootout – and major upset – of the tournament, with Austria squandering a 2-0 lead to Slovakia. Slovakia scored twice in regulation to force extra time, with both teams getting about one good opportunity each. In the shootout, Peter Schneider scored the winner, but it was what happened after that that caused chaos.
