Well I would think....the WJC players are under 20...where as the other "mens" league are over 20......What type of argument is that?1. Very few AHLers play in the WC.
2. With very, very few exceptions, pretty much all players in men's leagues are better hockey players than juniors. In fact, many, if not most WJC players, will not make the NHL.
3, I would much rather watch a regular season NHL game than a WJC exhibition game. I actually find the WJC rather dull until the semi-finals, when all the weak teams are weeded out.
4. This tournament is overhyped in Canada to the point where I usually find myself cheering against Canada.
We are talking the TOP prospects from countries.
Second.....your comparing a "exhibition" game to a game that counts..ok and? Most people would watch the game that counts over an exhibition game unless the exhibition game has implications on the final roster.
BTW how many Hab prospects are playing in the tournament? Could that maybe be a reason why you have no interest in it?
