In the fall of 2013, after Rogers Communications shocked the hockey world and upended the media landscape in this country by swooping up the entire Canadian national NHL broadcast-rights package for 12 years at the staggering cost of more than $5-billion, Hubert Lacroix, then the president of the CBC, made an unexpected appearance at the press conference announcing the deal. It felt a little like he had been invited to deliver a eulogy.

The 1998 film Saving Private Ryan opens with a shot of an American flag flapping in the breeze. It ends that way, too.
