2024 IIHF World Championship Group A
Group A is one of two groups of the 2024 IIHF World Championship. The four best-placed teams advance to the playoff round, while the last placed team will be relegated to Division I in 2025.[1][2]
By rule Denmark cannot be relegated because it is a co-host of the 2025 World Championship.
