While the highest number of participants in any previous tournament was 7, the organisers had thought out measures aimed at attracting 12 participating countries.[7] However, in the end the number of teams were 8, including the debutants Estonia and Switzerland, while Canada declined this year.[8] The matches were played on naturally frozen ice on the lake at Chengde Mountain Resort.[7]

Sweden and Russia met for the ninth time of nine possible in the final. For the eighth time Sweden won.
