It's not luck.  Canada should have won it pretty easily in the 8th, but missed that shot, too.  It should have never come down to a millimeter.  

 

Oh well, they would have never won a medal in the playoffs the way they were playing.  

If they beat Italy, they could have beaten them again and be guaranteed a medal.


What a disaster for Canada. Already down 2 gold medals from 2018, third one guaranteed today

They gave the only undefeated team a good run for their money but those mistakes cost them. It's upsetting and disappointing.

well on the brightside, at least big air is going well

This is going on right down the street from me.  There's a pub right in that park we go to sometimes.  So sad we can't go, even though it's outside.

Did Alex Beaulieu Marchand retire? He's doing the commentary and is quite good. 

 

 

 

Yea it was him!

 

Also it appears CBC won't be showing the slopestyle final instead opting for figure skating (Ie no commentary from Craig McMorris)

    • Linn Gestblom (previously Persson) Will miss all season. Not recovered after surgery.
    • Greece and Portugal also have winter sports centres - but of course these are not homologated routes for World Cup competitions I have never been to Albania personally, so I don't know the country at all. I have been in southern Croatia, though, and there are mountains there but you definitely can't ski there (I was there in the summer, but it's also impossible in the winter). World cup taking place there only in Zagreb.    In general the case of Colturi and Kostelic is completely different: Colturi has no ties to Albania and Janica Kostelic was Croatian and didn't left their country even though at the beginning of her carrier (and also her brother Ivica) her father had to pay for everything and the federation's support was zero. This only changed later. I imagine that the Kostelic family had offers from other countries (Austria, Switzerland, Italy?) to compete for them, which were much richer (at the beginning of the 21st century Croatia was a very poor country and devastated by war). All the more respect for them because they were true Croatian patriots until the end. I can imagine the Colturi family in a similar situation... Her mother would probably negotiate with half of Alpine Europe for Lara to compete for them Which of course doesn't change the fact that the Italian federation completely gave a shit in this situation. They let such talent go in a situation where they hasn`t a single female athlete on the podium of the World Cup in slalom for a dozen or so years. In the giant slalom it's not much better either, only there the older athletes cloud the picture: Brignone and Bassino. However, behind these two there is absolutely nothing...
