You are probably right.
The whole team looked bad at the WJC Imo, but Poitras himself had 4 points in 5 games and finished +3. He didn't blow it away, but I would hardly say he dramatically underperformed.
Again, in comparison, Mercer had 6 points in 7 games and was +7 in his 19 year old WJC appearance. Very similar. Mercer had the better team.
