The Boston Bruins hit the ice on Tuesday, hoping to snap their three-game losing skid against the Toronto Maple Leafs. With a 9-6-2 record in Atlantic Division matchups and 27-24-7 overall, Boston needed a win. But with an 8-16-3 record when racking up more penalties than their opponents, discipline was going to be key. On the other side, Toronto came in strong with a 35-20-2 overall record, plus an 11-5-1 standing against division rivals. And, well, the Leafs stay out of the penalty box more than their opponents. They boast an 11-6-0 record—so the odds were already looking shaky for the Bruins.

Then came Tuesday’s showdown, and let’s just say—Boston fans were in for a rough night. The losing streak stretched to four as the Bruins fell 5-4 in a heartbreaker against Toronto. But if that wasn’t painful enough, the Boston Bruins’ faithful had another headache to deal with, making the loss sting even more.

Gino Hard hopped on X mid-game to drop a clip, captioning it, “Bruins power play goal? (cross). Chipotle ad? (check). Some Bruins fans had to miss a goal due to an unexpected advertisement” And yup, you read that right—some unlucky Bruins fans had to sit through a surprise ad break just as their team lit the lamp. Talk about brutal timing!

And well, you already know—Boston Bruins’ fans were not having it. One second, they’re locked into the game, and the next? Boom. Burritos instead of a Bruins goal. The frustration was real, and social media was buzzing with fans venting about the untimely ad that robbed them of a moment they actually wanted to see.

One fan didn’t hold back, dropping a blunt “Joke network” because, well, why not? And honestly, they had a point. The timing couldn’t have been worse!

In the now-viral clip, Toronto sat at zero while Boston Bruins was cruising with a 2-0 lead. The puck danced between Bruins players, setting up the perfect shot—bam!—right into the net. But just before fans could even witness the magic, an ad crashed the party. And by the time it wrapped up? The screen cut straight to Bruins players and fans celebrating yet another goal. Talk about a serious case of FOMO! But this was just the beginning!

Boston Bruins’ broadcasting issues make fans furious!

Another user jumped in with, “id rather watch a chipotle ad than a bruins game.” And honestly, can you blame them? Boston Bruins just took another L, and let’s not forget their February 22nd heartbreak when Leo Carlsson snatched victory for the Ducks in OT, handing them a 3-2 loss right at TD Garden. Bruins fans have had it rough, so when someone else chimed in with, “I hate ads. But I too would rather watch a Chipotle ad than a Bruins goal,” it kinda hit different.

Another user jumped in with, “Insane jumpscare lmao,” and honestly, they weren’t wrong—it was a total jumpscare moment! But hey, while that might be fresh news, there’s one thing that never seems to change—broadcasting issues. Just a few days ago, Ryan Hana, took to X to lay out the cold, hard truth about watching NHL games. “You need about a half-dozen different services/subscriptions to watch NHL games, & even then you’re blacked out randomly or there’s some random switch to a different network that you can only access if you answer these riddles three.”

And, of course, he didn’t stop there. “Best sport in the world and nobody can watch.” Between juggling subscriptions, dodging blackouts, and navigating unexpected network switches, keeping up with NHL games feels like an extreme sport in itself. So yeah, no wonder fans are out here venting, with takes like, “NESN is a joke Bruins hockey is a joke fml.” At this point, Boston Bruins fans aren’t just dealing with losses on the ice—they’re battling for a decent viewing experience, too!
