The 2016 IIHF World Championship was the 80th such event hosted by the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF), being held from 6 to 22 May 2016 in Moscow and Saint Petersburg, Russia. [1] Canada entered the tournament as the defending 2015 champions. Hungary returned to the Championship after a 6-year absence, and Kazakhstan after a 1-year absence. [2]
Canada won their 26th gold medal, defeating Finland 2–0 in the gold medal game. [3] With the win Corey Perry became the second consecutive Canadian team captain to earn membership in the Triple Gold Club. [4] Russia won the bronze medal, defeating the United States 7–2 in the bronze medal game. [5]
There were three official bids to host these championships. The decision on who hosts the tournament was decided during the final weekend of the 2011 IIHF World Championship in Bratislava, Slovakia. [6]

The 16 teams were split into two groups of eight teams. After playing a round-robin, the top four teams advance to the knockout stage, to play out the winner. The last team of each group will be relegated to Division I the following year. [7]
The seeding in the preliminary round was based on the 2015 IIHF World Ranking, which ended at the conclusion of the 2015 IIHF World Championship. [8]

|
Each team's roster consisted of at least 15 skaters ( forwards and defencemen) and two goaltenders, and at most 22 skaters and three goaltenders. All 16 participating nations, through the confirmation of their respective national associations, had to submit a roster by the first IIHF directorate meeting.
The IIHF selected 16 referees and 16 linesmen to work the tournament. [9]
