Description: The 2013 edition of the IIHF Guide & Record Book includes every tournament participation for every country and every year, right from the most important Olympics down to Division III, IV, and V of any category with all current or former countries from Andorra to Yugoslavia.
Active and Retired Players sections for men and women include every player to appear in even a single game game of the top level since international hockey first took hold in 1920. As well, the huge and revealing head-to-head results section has been updated, as has been every other section in the book, which now runs to 597 pages. In all, more than 12,000 players are included, as well as every coach, every referee, and every linesman.
The book includes records for all levels of top competition, notably the Olympics (men and women), the World Championships (men and women), the World U20 Championship, and the World U18 Championships (men and women). As well, all information for the Summit Series (1972), Canada Cup (1976-91), and World Cup of Hockey (1996-2004) is included.
