Notables
- Australia seems to be building a good defense. Get it? Carpenter, Woodman...I'll show myself out now.
- It's a pure guess, but it seems like Belgium has a brother pairing on defense.
- Sun Duck is probably the best name for a high school...ever.
1 (Promoted) - Estonia
2 - Serbia
3 - South Korea
4 - Belgium
5 - Australia
6 (Relegated) - Iceland
I say Estonia (who finished second last year) does enough to earn a promotion. Serbia (third last place year) does push for the promotion spot but gets edged out. Newly relegated South Korea might have the skaters to do well, but their goaltending is a bit young, which might hinder them. Belgium and Australia remain status quo from last year. A newly promoted Iceland will need to do something big in order to remain in Division II.
