Just another NFL game when you look at the team members.

You don't understand the concept of hockey do you?

Meant NHL.

What concept?
National game of Canada
Olympic teams from many countries consisted of NHL players. Sort of
like the All Star games
Highest score wins.

If an all amateur team won I'd say you have bragging rights. Many of
these games were just a mix of pro players. Yes, they are all good
players, but I see this as more of an all-star pickup game.

From a country that fields an NBA team in the summer Olympics, that's pretty
funny.

While I tend to agree that the introduction of pro athletes into the games
has changed the concept of the games, but what defines an amateur these
days?
