Keep USA hockey, periodicals in New Zealand, the hockey house regularly, frequent coverage in Australia, hockey Canada coverage, and it goes on and on. Not to mention that it is a world championship governed by a major international sports body.

- @18abruce: yes tons of hockey websites have information about a hockey event... That doesn't establish notability. --Zackmann08 (Talk to me/What I been doing) 04:24, 13 January 2017 (UTC)]
- Not all of the websites listed are hockey websites. And that was just a sampling of only english sites.18abruce (talk) 12:47, 13 January 2017 (UTC)]
- @18abruce: you are correct. You listed 5 websites... 4 were hockey sites and 1 was a ticket sales agency... None of which establish notability. --Zackmann08 (Talk to me/What I been doing) 17:24, 13 January 2017 (UTC)]
- Does TSN count? Sorry about the ticket sales one, the substance is a copy and paste from the Taranaki news site and I picked the wrong one by accident. I was actually surprised that there was a lot more (english anyway) coverage of the FIRS championship available out there. Henrik freaking Lundqvist played in it, it is a bigger deal in Europe.18abruce (talk) 17:58, 13 January 2017 (UTC)]

- Keep If there is no question about IIHF's notability and legitimacy, I don't see how their world championship will be found nonnotable. Timmyshin (talk) 07:53, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
- Keep This seems like a pretty silly nomination. There is absolutely no question to the notability of this world championship. -DJSasso (talk) 17:44, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
