We have an international tournament, with the worlds best players, and the host country where the sport is most popular won't show the entire games on tv. For something that should be considered as hockey's version of the FIFA World Cup, they sure dont do it any publicity favours by pulling stunts like this. International hockey has never been what it should be.
