Latvia: As expected, Latvia qualifies for the Olympics. They end up in the weaker (by structure) group. A good showing in the World Championship would help them going into the Olympics.
Kazakhstan: Came close to qualifying. Will now get ready for Division I Group A, hoping to get back into the main tournament after being relegated last year.
France: Seems like they should have done better. Need to get really for the World Championships after failing to qualify for the Olympics.
Great Britain: While not having as strong a team as the other thee countries, it still feels like they should have made a bit more noise. Will now gear up for Division I Group A in April.
