This is never going to amount to anything, because the league just can't commit to a regular interval.
World Cup will always be a joke until that changes. And it takes time to establish legitimately.
Maybe their idea is to do Olympics and World Cup every 4 years, so then there's a big international event every two years, but that seems too frequent for a global hockey tournament. The World Cup will always feel inadequate since it'll be less than two years of seeing the same thing, for higher stakes.
