I understand the tournament means nothing and don't expect play-off level intensity but not sure why that means stupid passes like Ladd setting up the Danish player for a breakaway passing the puck to nobody without any pressure on him.

Just take the puck, skate around these guys and make the easy pass to the open man.

Canada is dominating and will win easily but I can understand why this tournament isn't popular in Canada watching them play like crap like this.
Its really simple. They're treating this tournament like shinny hockey. Its like a pro who goes to a beer league game, they're going to do stuff they would never do against other pros because they'd get slaughtered, but they'll try it out.

This is why they havent won it in a while.

That and too many Oilers. You're never going to win with that many Oilers on your team. They're like playing shorthanded. Negative value.
