Or what about this, as a one-off - a Canada vs the World seven-game series.

We’re the only country that can run four #1 lines with three #1D pairings and two Vezina goalies.

Make it a challenge.

I agree but the NHL is not interested.

Why do the World Juniors work? Because the CHL buys in.

Even freaking curling can figure out a world championship and a continental cup and put it in Vegas.
