Reports that Pierre Crinon has been sent home by France.

After his encounter with Wilson on Sunday earned him an ejection, as fighting in the Olympics is prohibited, the 6-foot-4, 220-pound rearguard was called in by the French Ice Hockey Federation to review his overall conduct. Crinon appeared to taunt Wilson and possibly the crowd as he left the ice.


“Following the expulsion and Pierre Crinon’s attitude during the France-Canada match, Pierre-Yves Gerbeau, president of the FFHG and deputy head of the delegation, will summon the sanctioned player as early as tomorrow to shed full light on this incident, in the presence of the DTN and the staff,” Hockey France tweeted Sunday, as translated via Google Translate.
Crinon attended that interview with the FFHG, and the governing body decided to suspend his participation from the rest of the tournament. France plays Germany in a single-elimination playoff qualifying matchup on Tuesday.
