Tournaments where you know who wins are not that interesting. I think the interest for the last World Cup was so low in part because it wasn't really competitive. Unless there's more upsets I don't think World Cup of hockey has much chance of growing into a really big event.

It's probably how the hockey is bring played. Canada is winning and they are dominantly grinding teams down.
Canada won 4 out of the 5 Canada Cups but it was exciting and always in doubt.
