Yeah 3:42. Is that it then? Their lap times were considerably slower than last week. About .5 seconds slower each half a lap. Wonder who they switched up

It would kinda take a miracle at this point.

They are 12th in the time rankings and they will be stuck in the B-division at the next World Cup again. I don't think it's mathematically possible unfortunately. There are 4 other teams they need to pass.

Yeah they just have to have the skate of their lives on a much slower ice, probably around a 1 percent chance of actually happening haha

They need to lay down a 3:29.high at sea level to qualify by time. Qualifying by points is not possible.

29 or 39?

 

Maybe with a hopefully recovered Connor Howe, it will be possible.

Sorry, 39.

 

Specifically Canada *needs* to skate 3:39.176 or better to have any chance to qualify a men’s team pursuit team (assuming there aren’t *four* quotas that get declined xD )
