Only rank nine: deb

The DEB selection adopted at the Olympic Ice Hockey Tournament in the play-offs against Slovakia with a 0: 4, the quarterfinals took place without the ambitious skid cracks from Germany. In the now published world rankings, the team of Toni Söderholm slipped, which extended his contract despite the Olympic bankruptcy until 2026, from the fifth to the ninth place.

Sweden, Switzerland, Czech Republic and Slovakia moved past the German selection in the ranking, which published the World Association IIHF on Wednesday. Olympic champion Finland stands rank one in front of Canada, Russia and the USA. At the World Cup in Finland (13 to 29 May), the DEP team can work up again, because then the world ranking will be recalculated.

Deb women lose a place

The German women who missed Olympia are also slipped from the eighth to the ninth place.
