The '''1939 [[Ice Hockey World Championships]]''' were held between February 3 and February 12, 1939, in [[Zürich]] and [[Basel]], [[Switzerland]]. [[Austria]] had been annexed by [[Germany]] in 1938, and four Austrians played this tournament in German jerseys.<ref name=summary/>
[[Canadian_national_men%27s_hockey_team | Canada]] won its eleventh world championship title while the host, [[Swiss_national_ice_hockey_team |Switzerland]], won its third European championship. Switzerland and Czechoslovakia both earned one pount in the final round but Switzerland won a one-game playoff (and thus the European Championship) after the World Championships were completed.

The four teams not advancing from the second round played a consolation round for placed 5 through 8.

[[Canada men's national ice hockey team|Canada]] won its eleventh world championship winning all their games while only giving up one goal in the entire tournament. The USA had lost to the Swiss in the semi-final round, but defeated them in the final to claim silver. The host, [[Swiss national ice hockey team|Switzerland]], won its third European championship by winning a one-game playoff against Czechoslovakia well after the World Championship had concluded. Both teams had earned one point in the final round and decided to play tie-breaking game.<ref name=summary/>

The games were held at ''Kunsteisbahn Margarethen'' in [[Basel]] and ''Dolder Kunsteisbahn'' in [[Zürich]].

The 8-1 victory over the Belgian side would be the last victory for Hungary at the World Championships highest level until [[2016 IIHF World Championship|2016]]

The 1939 Ice Hockey World Championships were held between February 3 and February 12, 1939, in Zürich and Basel, Switzerland. Austria had been annexed by Germany in 1938, and four Austrians played this tournament in German jerseys.[1] The fourteen teams participating in the 1939 World Championship were initially divided into four preliminary groups: two groups of four and two groups of three. The top two teams in each group advanced to the second round. The eight teams in the second round played in two groups of four, with the top two from each group advancing to the third (final) round. The six teams not advancing to the second round played a consolation round in two groups of 3 teams with the winners of each group playing a one-game play-off for 9th place. The four teams not advancing from the second round played a consolation round for placed 5 through 8.

Canada won its eleventh world championship winning all their games while only giving up one goal in the entire tournament. The USA had lost to the Swiss in the semi-final round, but defeated them in the final to claim silver. The host, Switzerland, won its third European championship by winning a one-game playoff against Czechoslovakia well after the World Championship had concluded. Both teams had earned one point in the final round and decided to play tie-breaking game.[1]

The games were held at Kunsteisbahn Margarethen in Basel and Dolder Kunsteisbahn in Zürich.

The 8-1 victory over the Belgian side would be the last victory for Hungary at the World Championships highest level until 2016
