Recent WJC Champions - Printable Version

In continuing the WJC theme, we will review the recent champions of the tournament. These illustrious winners will forever be enshrined in the SHL. Some teams are very successful at defending their skill level, others are not so good. Usually, these victories follow a trend over the years as players get called up and new players are created. Some teams have the benefit of selecting from large player pools like Canada, USA, or DACH. Since the junior level tpe is capped at 425, competition can be very steep at the top of the skill curve.
