2026 Winter Olympics

I want Canada to win the hockeys, obviously. But I'm okay with another country beating us. As long as it's not the US.

Are there ways to watch this if you don't have NBC or Peacock? (I'm in the USA) I'd love to have the British coverage but not sure if there is a way to do it. Any ideas?

Get a Virtual Private Network to watch the BBC's streams.

As much as I love Jason Brown, it sounds like he didn't bring it when needed. Maybe alternate based on season results vs the other men, but sounds like others have a better claim to the spots.

Jason was born to be an exhibition skater. I'm not sure why he hasn't gone that route by now.

What is the logic for giving Brown a berth on the Worlds team and making Naumov the alternate? The conversations behind the scenes in this sport must be even weirder than the ones in gymnastics...

Blatant favoritism/marketing, I suspect.

BBC regularly blocks the most commercially available VPNs.
Also, the BBC don’t have the main broadcast rights for the Olympics anymore. They are held by Discovery.

For the summer Olympics, the bbc showed a small number of live events but I don’t know if they plan to for the Winter Olympics as there isn’t much interest/medal chances from GB so it could just be a daily highlights show.
