This is a totally different tournament. At this level -- yes, Canadians are superior, because it's easier to teach children dump-and-chase system. As they grow older, Europeans learn their more intricate styles.

Not only that, but the U.S. does not send their best team to this tournament so it's not a true test of the competition.
