1932 Ice Hockey European Championship Explained

The 1932 Ice Hockey European Championship was the 17th edition of the ice hockey tournament for European countries associated to the International Ice Hockey Federation. This was the last time it was played independent of the World Hockey Championships or the Olympics.

The tournament was played between March 14 and March 20, 1932, in Berlin, Germany, and Sweden won their fourth title.

Originally, the top two teams from each group were supposed to advance to a six-team final round. However, all three teams in group A tied both their games, and they all advanced under the rules in place.

As logistical issues prevented a final round with seven teams, the second-place teams in group B and group C, France and Great Britain, agreed to withdraw from the final round in favor of playing in the consolation round.
