um, i think i explained why it's dumb... so why does second place Canada get two shots at first place china in the playoffs just because they finish second in the round robin in which they lost to china? How does it reward China? they have to beat canada 3 times while canada only has to beat them once.
and BTW it''s only been used at worlds since '05. in Canada since '96
just my opinion.
