Regarding the new classification of the two groups after the top level in the world championship field, Luc Tardif, the president of the IIHF in Hungary, explained in an interview with the current M1 channel:
He added that it is envisaged that there will be ten national teams in the second division, most of whom have recently proven themselves not only as participants but also as directors. He then highlighted France, Britain, Italy and Austria, where they have all the facilities to run high-profile tournaments and have the necessary marketing support.
Tardif has revealed that a feasibility study on the reorganization is planned for this year, and consultation with those who were very enthusiastic about the idea will begin. The president has revealed that their goal is to carry out the reorganization in the near future, which will take two years to prepare.
