If anything, this shows that Canada should invest some money and effort into a national team program so that players get some experience with one another and play better together. No one really knows if the NHL players will be back and having a team of NHL all stars shouldn't be plan A for a successful tournament.
Both the USA and Canada are in the same position right now.
I actually think that Canada could have had more success if they sent the World Junior's team because atleast they have experience playing together in December.
