I agree with you.
On international ice, you see a lot more of players holding the puck and being unchallenged because the defending player would rather not challenge for the puck since getting back into position would be more difficult.
You also see more missed passes and icing. It seems slower and boring to me. On smaller ice, there is no where to just chill for the puck carrier.
I think Finland uses an ice-surface that is somewhere in between. That might be a good compromise.
