The 1982 World Junior Ice Hockey Championships (1982 WJHC) was the sixth edition Ice Hockey World Junior Championship and was held from December 22, 1981, until January 2, 1982. The tournament was hosted by the United States in various cities across the state of Minnesota with some games also played in the Canadian provinces of Manitoba and Ontario.

Canada won their first gold medal at the World Juniors, while Czechoslovakia and Finland won silver and bronze, respectively. Meanwhile, the Soviet Union finished fourth, marking the only time they played an entire World Juniors tournament and failed to win a medal (the USSR was disqualified in 1987). The host United States featuring future hall of famers John Vanbiesbrouck, Chris Chelios, and Phil Housley, finished sixth.
