Olympic Ice Hockey Tensions Lead to Sudden Team Decision

The altercation occurred during France’s game against Canada. The French player involved was Pierre Crinon, and the exchange included Canadian players Tom Wilson and Nathan MacKinnon. Following the incident, both Crinon and Wilson were removed from the ice, and the French Ice Hockey Federation (FFHG) later announced that Crinon would return home as a disciplinary measure.

Canada ultimately secured a decisive victory in the matchup. Meanwhile, the tournament continues with Norway leading the medal standings and host nation Italy delivering strong performances on home ice.
