context_page_description: The 2006 IIHF World Championship rosters consisted of 370 players on 16 national ice hockey teams. Run by the International Ice Hockey Federation, the Ice Hockey World Championships is the sport's highest-profile annual international tournament. The 2006 IIHF World Championship was the 70th edition of the tournament and was held in Riga, Latvia. Sweden won the Championship, the eighth time they had done so.
  Before the start of the World Championship, each participating nation had to submit a list of players for its roster. A minimum of fifteen skaters and two goaltenders, and a maximum of twenty skaters and three goaltenders had to be selected. If a country selects fewer than the maximum allowed, they must choose the remaining players prior to the start of the tournament. After the start of the tournament, each team was allowed to select an additional two players, either skaters or goaltenders, to their roster, for a maximum roster of 25 players. Once players were registered to the team, they could not be removed from the roster.
  To qualify for a national team under IIHF rules, a player must follow several criteria.
