Fuck the commercials - show the fights. Jeez...

While this issue has been prevalent throughout the games, it's biggest offense came during Sunday morning's coverage of the men's hockey match between Canada and France.Canada, the heavy favorites for the gold medal, was up 10-2 in a demolition of Les Blues when the streamer suddenly cut to a commercial break in the middle of the action. By the time the broadcast resumed, Canadian enforcer Tom Wilson had discarded his gloves and was being skated to the penalty box.

 

It turns out, while ads were playing, Wilson got into the first fight of these Winter Games with French defenseman Pierre Crinon.

Fighting in Olympic hockey results in an automatic ejection, which means this may have been the only altercation fans will see in the entire tournament. But, thanks to the error, the only way fans watching on the streaming service knew what happened came from a brief replay of the melee.
