Talk:Ice hockey at the 1948 Winter Olympics

message: The IOC did not invalidate USA's games from the tournament.  If they had done so, Czechoslovakia, at plus-61, would have been the winner and not Canada, at plus-55.  Rather, Canada, at plus-64, took the gold, while Czechoslovakia, at plus-62, took silver.  As is, the article gives no explanation for why Canada took gold and not Czechoslovakia.  I would like to add USA's games to the list if there are no objections.  Joel225sp 07:46, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: You wrote about 69 minus 5 (or 57 minus 2) and 80 minus 18 (or 76 minus 15). But Canada took gold because of quotient (69 div 5 (or 57 div 2) is much better than 80 div 18 (76 div 15)). --85.160.36.28 13:10, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: passionhockey.com indicates that while the USA was stricken from the olympic standings, they remain 4th in the world championships.18abruce (talk) 19:14, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Exclusion of USA's games 

message: There are some issues of disagreeing accounts of what the official details should be.  
I have added to the article that the americans remain fourth in the world championship standings because the iihf did not have an issue with their entrant, the ioc did.  Passion hockey lists them as fourth for the worlds, the official IIHF encyclopedia lists them fourth in the standings, though strangely indicates that there were only eight nations competing in the tournament, so I acknowledge that it is not conclusive.
As for the matter of the tie-breaker, sources differ on whether it is goal difference or goal average (or quotient).  The official encyclopedia indicates average, the cited source says difference, the tsn page says both (another good job tsn!!!), passionhockey.com says average, but also says the difference is two goals, not following the french there I guess.  The official report seems to indicate the goal average is what matters, and seeing as that agrees with the IIHF encyclopedia, I will change it.18abruce (talk) 04:27, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
