It's going to happen just like the other gimmicky, similarly named tournaments happened. It won't be meaningful or more than a curious footnote when it happens this time, only to disappear for another few years or CBAs.
The potential withdrawal from the Olympics will be dumb, as the Olympics have more built in prestige and significance than anything the NHL and IIHF will be able to manufacture for decades.
