The 2022 IIHF World Juniors is officially underway in Alberta, Canada.
10 teams from around the world were divided into two-five team groups and are set to compete through Jan. 5 in pursuit of a gold medal. Although the pre-tournament games were canceled, the 2022 World Juniors tournament began with the first matchup between Finland and Germany on Sunday, Dec. 26.
Despite being mandated to a five-day quarantine period upon arrival, a few teams had COVID-19 outbreaks that forced the pre-tournament schedule changes. With the recent surge in COVID-19 cases worldwide, the Canadian government implemented additional restrictions in an attempt to limit the spread. The tournament will go on barring any last-minute announcements.
Before making the trip to Alberta, Team Canada and Team USA both released their rosters. A full tournament schedule with results from each matchup can be found below.
This page will serve as a daily guide to the 2022 IIHF World Junior Championship from puck drop till the gold medal is handed out.
Follow along for live scores, updates and a full TV schedule from every game, every day.
