relegated Teams

[Namejs]

Im pretty curious, if we ever see fall of the one from Big6.

The US were close to relegation in 2010 and very close in 2003, so it's fair to say that they're about as likely to get relegated as they are to win the title.

Well, sure - Czechs had some downfalls to the line too, but...well...I know that "weak" nations are rising up and "strong" ones aint so strong as in history...yet to see Rus, Can, Usa, Swe, Fin or Cze in division 1 would be soo...strange?

How is that worse than the alleged 59:0 loss which never happened?

Cause the real score was 63:0

US was relegated in 1982. They lost to Italy, and tied West Germany

In the same year in the Asian division, Korea beat Thailand 92-0:

Austria and Slovenia get relegated.

Kazakhstan and Hungary will be moving on up next year. Anyone know the last time Hungary was in the top group?

I am afraid that next year Kazakhstan will go down again. This team has not a future. Just a bunch of old farts lead by several Canadiens.

Still stirring the pot is good for the sport, awaking the interest in some more countries.

Those Canadians might just prove to be the difference as they are extremely effective euro ice players.
