The 1975 World Junior Ice Hockey Championships were between December 26, 1974 and January 5, 1975 in several venues in Winnipeg and Brandon, Manitoba in Canada and in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and Fargo, North Dakota in the United States. The Soviet team won the tournament with a perfect 5–0 record. This was the second edition of the IIHF World U20 Championship, but the results are not included in official IIHF records. Canada was represented by an all-star team from just the Western Canada Hockey League, while the other five nations were represented by teams of all their top under-20 players.

Famous quotes containing the words world, junior and/or ice:
“I date the end of the old republic and the birth of the empire to the invention, in the late thirties, of air conditioning. Before air conditioning, Washington was deserted from mid-June to September.... But after air conditioning and the Second World War arrived, more or less at the same time, Congress sits and sits while the presidents—or at least their staffs—never stop making mischief.”
—Gore Vidal (b. 1925)
“Never burn bridges. Today’s junior prick, tomorrow’s senior partner.”
—Kevin Wade, U.S. screenwriter, and Mike Nichols. Katharine Parker (Sigourney Weaver)
“The awaited scream rises,
the shattering
of glass and the cracking
of bone
a polar tumult as when
black ice booms....”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
