2006 Men's Ice Hockey World Championships

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by 70.29.153.195 (talk) at 19:42, 18 May 2006 (→‎Quarterfinals: RUS/CZE stats). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

The 2006 Men's Ice Hockey Championships is the world championship in men's hockey for 2006. It is to be held in May, 2006 in Riga, Latvia. It is the 70th annual event, and is run by the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF).

One of the requirements of the IIHF for Latvia to host the event was that a new arena would be constructed. Sweden was the stand-by organizer in case the arena was delayed, but the IIHF has since finalised Latvia as the host. This marks the first time a former Soviet state apart from Russia has hosted the event.

It was preceded 2 months earlier by the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin, Italy, where ice hockey was also a major event.

The mascot of the event is a beaver called RIX (after Riga International Airport's IATA code.)
