Are guys really gonna kill themselves for this rando tournament though? Will Bennett be playoff Bennett with having to go back to the Panthers a week later? If nothing else it will be interesting.

Andersson talked about it a bunch yesterday - he’s looking to make a statement for the Olympic team.
This is the first best-on-best hockey that’s been played in eight years - it’s a big deal no matter what you think of the format.
Everyone who made this roster can see who was left off.
Nobody is going to risk their spot at the Olympics because this tournament “doesn’t mean anything”.
Maybe it doesn’t to you - it does to them.
