But it is not a one-off at all, in the sense that there will continue to be international tournaments and a Team Canada.
In fact, considering how few tournaments there have been in the recent past, I would think they would want to be VERY focused on re-establishing an ongoing vision.

Well, they specifically created a young player team last time so it wasn't an issue. But I don't know rthat you create succession plans with no actual tournaments in view. The Russians were doing that aimed at the WC and Olympics.
I'm still waiting for the people who are complaining about Bennett and Cirelli to say who is obviously better to fill those spots. If it's Bedard and Celebrini OK, but then it's more about your young player roles than getting the best players for the team.
