Men's competition

The format was changed from the version used in the 1998 and 2002 tournaments. In the new format the number of teams are reduced from 14 to 12 and the preliminary and final group stages were combined to form two six-team groups with the top four from each group advancing to the quarter-finals.

These changes had the following effects:

  • They increased the number of group games played by the so-called "Super Six" who previously automatically qualified for the final group stage from three to five.
  • They ensured that all teams in the tournament were treated more or less equally, and ensured that NHL players could play the entire tournament whether or not they were part of the "Super Six" group of teams.
  • They ensured that all of the games had some meaning since only four teams from each group will advance to the knock-out stage.

Qualification

Twelve places were allotted for the men's ice hockey tournament. The first eight were awarded to the top eight teams in the International Ice Hockey Federation ranking following the 2004 Men's World Ice Hockey Championships. Those teams were:

  1. Canada
  2. Sweden
  3. Slovakia
  4. Czech Republic
  5. Finland
  6. United States
  7. Russia
  8. Germany

The teams automatically qualified include the same "Super Six" teams that in the two previous tournaments were automatically qualified for the final group stage, plus Slovakia and Germany which (IIHF rankings notwithstanding) are generally regarded by fans as being the seventh and eighth best teams. The ninth place was given to the host nation, Italy. The final three places were allotted through qualification tournaments in which Switzerland, Kazakhstan, and Latvia won places.

Qualification tournaments

Groups D, E and F winners advance to Groups C, B and A respectively. Groups A, B, and C winners qualify for the Olympic tournament.
Group D - Briancon, France (11-14 November 2004)

Group E - Nowy Targ, Poland (11-14 November 2004)

Group F - Stavanger, Norway (11-14 November 2004)

Group A - Kloten, Switzerland (10-13 February 2005)

Group B - Riga, Latvia (10-13 February 2005)

Group C - Klagenfurt, Austria (10-13 February 2005)

Women's competition

The loss of the United States to Sweden in Semifinal 1 was one of the most important events in the history of international women's ice hockey. It marked the arrival of Sweden and Finland as Tier One teams, on the level of the United States and Canada. This was the first time that the United States team was defeated by a team other than Canada at a major international ice hockey competition.

With each previous Olympics, a major change in the status of the top teams in Women's International Ice Hockey has occured. In the 2002 Winter Olympics, Sweden joined Finland as a Tier Two team. In the inaugural 1998 Winter Olympics, the USA joined Canada as a Tier One Team.
