Canada<ref>[http://www.tsn.ca/World_jrs/feature/?fid=990 1993 World Junior Hockey Championships] coverage by TSN</ref> won the gold medal, its sixth championship, while Sweden won silver, and the combined team of the [[Czech Republic|Czech]] and [[Slovakia|Slovak]] Republics won bronze. Peter Forsberg of Sweden scored a tournament record 31 points, while teammate Markus Naslund's 13 goals also set a tournament record.

==Final standings==
The 1993 tournament was a round-robin format, with the top three teams winning gold, silver and bronze medals respectively. As the tournament was ongoing, the nation of [[Czechoslovakia]] was dissolved into two separate nations, the [[Czech Republic]] and [[Slovakia]], on New Years Day, 1993. The team remained unified throughout the tournament, however the Czechoslovakian flag and anthem were replaced with the flag and anthem of the [[International Ice Hockey Federation]] after January 1.<ref>{{cite book |last=Podnieks |first=Andrew |title=Red, White, and Gold: Canada at the World Junior Championships 1974–1999 |year=1998 |publisher=ECW Press |page=257 |isbn=1-55022-382-8}}</ref> Meanwhile, the former Soviet Union, which had competed in [[1992 World Junior Ice Hockey Championships|1992]] as the [[Commonwealth of Independent States]] was replaced in this tournament by Russia.
