It was the 70th annual event, and was 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 construction was completed on schedule, marking the first time a former Soviet state apart from Russia has hosted the event. The mascot of the championships was a beaver called RIX (after Riga International Airport's IATA code.) Sweden shut out the Czech Republic 4-0 in the Gold Medal Game to win the IIHF World Championships. Sweden had won the 2006 Winter Olympic Men's Ice Hockey Gold 3-2 versus Finland in Turin, Italy two months earlier. They therefore became the first hockey team to win both the Winter Olympics and the IIHF World Championships in the same year.http://www.ihwc.net/english/article/recaps/index.ihwc?&artId=2456 Recap of Swedish golden double at IHWC official site 27 December 2009 12 June 2006 https://web.archive.org/web/20060612232308/http://www.ihwc.net/english/article/recaps/index.ihwc?&artId=2456 dead Venues Arena RigaCapacity: 10,300Latvia Riga none 300 Latvia Riga 56.967958 24.121344 Arena Riga left Latvia Riga 56.961944 24.114444 Skonto Hall Skonto HallCapacity: 6,500 180px LAT – Riga LAT – Riga Nations The following 16 nations qualified for the elite hockey tournament – 13 nations from Europe, two nations from North America and one nation from Asia are represented.
