Top division Each round was a round-robin tournament, where the teams played each other once within their group. The Preliminary Round was divided into two groups: Group A and Group B, which included five teams each. From each group, the top three teams qualified for the playoffs; the 1st-ranked teams earned a direct trip to the Semifinals, while the 2nd and 3rd-ranked teams qualified for the Quarterfinals. The 4th and 5th-ranked teams had to play in the Relegation Round, where the three best teams qualified for the Top Division tournament in 2013, with the last-placed team being relegated to the 2013 Division I tournament. In the Semifinals, the directly-qualified Semifinalists faced the winners from the Quarterfinals.http://www.iihf.com/channels1112/wm20/format.html Top Division format iihf.com IIHF 2011-12-31 Rosters 2012 World Junior Ice Hockey Championships rosters Preliminary round Group A All round robin games held in Calgary, Alberta, at the Scotiabank Saddledome. main WL OT complete IIHF SWE SWE RUS RUS SVK SVK SUI SUI LAT LAT 2 2 0 0 26 11 3 0 1 0 23 5 2 0 0 2 11 17 1 0 1 2 12 16 0 0 0 4 8 31 Q SF QF QF RR RR green1 Semifinals blue1 Quarterfinals red1 Relegation round All times are local (Mountain Time Zone – UTC−7). #eeeeee December 26, 2011 15:30 LAT 4–9 SWE 0–11–11–21–32–32–43–43–53–63–73–83–94–9 (2–3, 1–3, 1–3) Kristers Gudļevskis Johan Gustafsson T.
