Game hangs in HUT Cup Chase

When playing Cup Chase and the game goes to intermission, I attempt to return to the game and it shows the ice without players. But nothing else. Just hangs. Sometimes going back to the menu and returning to the game, it will show a few players, but nothing happens. It’s happened more than once. The only way to get out of it is quit the game. Kinda sucks because you lose out on the undefeated streak pack.
