Hoping for Liendo and McIntosh to have a great performance, same for Ruck hope she can get over the mental block in the individual events, though on paper I don't think she will medal, her goal should be getting into the finals.

Waiting for the evening swim session, I was just going through some of the times from the morning vs Tokyo.  I had another look at the men's 4x100 relay, the one Canada finished a close 4th in.  Obviously it was Chalmers' last leg that got AUS ahead of Canada, but the numbers are something else.  

 

Chalmers had the fasted time in the relay by far (a quarter of a second ahead of Apple's 2nd fastest,  7/10 of a second ahead of Canada's Kisil's 3rd fastest).  

 

If Chalmers went slow enough for Canada to remain in 3rd at the end, he still would have had the 2nd fastest time comfortably.  

 

Chalmers' 56.44 was the fastest 100 at the Olympics since Lezak's inhuman's time (46.06) in 2008 in his anchor leg to get Phelps' his 8th gold, and 2nd fastest ever.  And remember, 2008 was during the fast suit era.

 

Canada's time in Tokyo would have got them on the podium in every Olympics except 2008, again the fast suit era.  

 

The reason I find all this interesting is because I feel like the men's 4th place is often overlooked, but it was completely unexpected and without a crazy last leg from Chalmers would have gotten them on the podium last year.  Here's hoping they can do something special in Budapest, even though I know it's not likely.

Yeah, it would have been a shocking medal had they pulled it off. I feel the men's program is recovering a bit and while they may not get medals again, I am hoping for a few final appearances.

Not bad for Day 1 preliminaries.

 

Our artistic swimming team is done dominating in the Pan American region. Scores don't change really in a quad, so it looks like Canada is headed to qualifying no one in this sport for Paris.

Canada can still qualify a duet at the final qualifier. Assuming they start fielding a team rather than focusing on the team event.

 

The morning swimming events went well, hopefully we can get a few medals over the week.

I really would like to see the men's team win a medal in the relay. Unfortunately Kisil is injured. If Kisil and Gaziev and can lower their time by a second each (which seems possible), perhaps a medals is in the cards.

Interesting, looks like Liendo is going to lead off the relay in the final. Order is Liendo-Gaziev-Acevedo-Kisil. I guess the goal is to get among the leaders early and try to hang on.

 

Also women's relay lineup is Sanchez-Ruck-MacNeil-Oleksiak.

    • Zurich fend off Färjestad to claim European Club Champions title     Zurich defeat Färjestad to become CHL Champions Färjestad's inability to convert on special teams was costly Sven Andrighetto scored both goals for the Swiss     Sven Andrighetto scored twice, including the game-winner at 32:33, and Šimon Hrubec made 31 of 32 saves as ZSC Lions Zurich kept the European Trophy in Switzerland with a nail-biting 2-1 victory over Färjestad Karlstad.   The Swedes scored late to bring the game to within one, but a dominant defensive effort from the Swiss side helped secure their well-deserved win in the 2024/25 Champions Hockey League Final.   Both netminders were excellent through the first 20 minutes, but an opportune moment near the end of the frame enabled the Swiss to break the deadlock when Andrighetto slid a loose puck between the pads of Maxime Lagacé to open the scoring at 17:48.    Dario Trutmann threw the initial shot on net as the puck ricocheted off several players before finding its way to the top of the blue paint where Andrighetto deposited the loose change to secure his ninth of the year.   Then in the second, it was Andrighetto again as the 31-year-old extended his club's lead with seven and a half to go in the middle frame.   Play developed as Denis Malgin skated the puck through neutral ice before dropping it off for Rudolfs Balcers who quickly dished it to Andrighetto in the near circle where he one-timed it past the Färjestad netminder to make it 2-0 in favour of the hosts.   The Swiss continued to put on a defensive clinic in the second, mitigating the Swedes' offensive pressure and minimising their high-danger chances.   Hrubec managed to turn aside all 20 Färjestad shots through the first two periods to keep his club's advantage heading into the third.   Still trailing by two, the Swedes were awarded their fourth powerplay of the night when Zurich's Malgin was called for Boarding at 50:59 and would make good on the ensuing man-advantage thanks to Per Åslund's second of the season and first since his goal on Game Day 1.   Off the face-off win, the puck found its way to David Tomášek who slid it towards the stick of Åslund who was parked at the top of the crease where he redirected it past Hrubec with less than ten minutes to play in regulation.   Desperate to find the equaliser, Färjestad pulled their netminder in the closing moments but Zurich's defence, spearheaded by Hrubec, pulled through as the Swiss fought off the Swedes' last-ditch effort to claim victory and be crowned European Club Champions.
