The Olympic ice hockey tournament of the 1936 Winter Olympics in Garmisch-Partenkirchen , Germany , was also the 10th ice hockey world championship and the 21st European ice hockey championship . The tournament took place from February 6 to 16, 1936. 15 teams took part. The venue for the Games was the newly built Olympic Ice Sports Center . There were also games on the frozen Riessersee .
The tournament started in four preliminary round groups; the first two in each group reached the intermediate round. There, the final round participants were determined in two groups with four teams each. The first two of each group entered the final round, taking their direct comparisons with them. For the first time, Canada was not the Olympic champion, but Great Britain brought the defending champion their first Olympic defeat and won the gold medal, the world championship and, in a European comparison, the European championship with mostly British-born players who emigrated to Canada at an early age.

Short reports on the finals
At 7-0 Canada on the morning of February 15, the Czech Republic looked tired, weakened by the absence of Karel Hromádka and Jiří Tožička and offered little resistance. In the first two thirds the maple leaves played for a big win, because they still had a chance to win the title, but in the last third they were content with a demonstration of beautiful ice hockey.
In the penultimate tournament match England's tactics were more defensive, so that the USA, which were forced to win, always acted slightly superior, but they didn't risk everything either. With two chances, the English goalkeeper Jimmy Foster , who was one of the best keepers in the Olympic tournament, reacted superbly. Despite the three extensions of two five minutes, the final score was 0-0, which means that England was practically already an Olympic champion and was accordingly enthusiastically celebrated by the audience.
Only a 4-0 victory for the USA could have brought the Yankees gold in the ultimate final game in the warm sun and in front of 10,000 spectators. The ice had suffered a bit from the blow dryer for the past two days, and the game was slow from the start. The only hit came from a lucky shot from the post, from where the puck jumped into the box. The Canadians dominated their opponent, but they were not interested in a high victory. There were some heated scenes, but technically and in terms of combination trains, this overseas duel owed a lot.
Disappointment in Switzerland
Regarding the early retirement of the Swiss team, “Sport Zürich” stated in its no. 26 of February 21, 1936, page 2, that there was already disagreement with the selection, in which the players of the long-time champions Davos owed the majority had come, the spirit of genuine camaraderie was missing, the team leaders treated the actors like recruits and not as people. In addition, the preparation was inadequate.
