And this is the more complicated way using lambda expressions to write it:

order.Items
   .GroupJoin (
      productNonCriticalityList, 
      i => i.ProductID, 
      p => p.ProductID, 
      (i, g) => 
         new  
         {
            i = i, 
            g = g
         }
   )
   .SelectMany (
      temp => temp.g.DefaultIfEmpty(), 
      (temp, p) => 
         new  
         {
            i = temp.i, 
            p = p
         }
   )

I would recommend switching to from syntax and you can use the into keyword.

It does the same thing as the method syntax and is far more readable (IMO).

(from l1 in myFirstDataSet
join l2 in mySecondDataSet on l1.<join_val> equals l2.<join_val> into leftJ
from lj in leftJ.DefaultIfEmpty()
where <your_where_clause>
select <something>).ToList();

Entity Framework left join on multiple tables creates inner join instead

The ...INNER JOINS... represent required n:1 associations. If you had navigation properties, the join would be a reference to another, required, entity, not a collection. EF knows from the data model that an ...OUTER JOIN... would have no effect here, so it generates an ...INNER JOIN....
