For some reason the Flames have just ignored the Worlds which is too bad. Maybe that stemmed from Iginla? Who knows.
Yeah, so?

It's a third rate tournament at best. I don't know why the heck I should care about it, so I don't expect the players to care about it either.

If a player wants to go play, that's awesome... but I don't see it being a big deal at all.
