Not without some promise though, to be fair. It's not exactly the heyday of Canadian XC skiing, but I'd say there's hope.

Ya the men’s team in particular is promising. It’s just very much not the kind of team we had over the last two decades.

This is the A team, lol.

 

Léveillé is likely our next "Harvey".

That's when the drama starts. drama.png Nations will be accepting/declining quotas in real time, from what I can remember from before Pyeongchang.

Oh boy. I didn't pay much attention four years ago, but I will try to do so now (for cross-country at least, I don't think I have the mental energy to focus on anything besides that :lol:).

 

I wonder what it will all look like during this process. Like, will there at some point for example be a green bar or something over a country that has accepted X spots? Or a red one over a country which has accepted only part of their spots? Who knows!

 

And if I'm not mistaken, the process to reallocate any unused spots will start Wednesday (and basically finish the same or next day), so I assume after Tuesday we'll have a list of unused spots, if any..

If it’s like the last time, the chart will show the initial allocated quota. A green dot means that the allocated quota has been accepted as offered (meaning none were rejected), a yellow dot will show if more quotas have been allocated than there are athletes eligible for (I think it also may show if the number of quotas accepted by a nation was less than originally allocated (ie some were rejected)), a red dot should show of a nation has rejected all quotas.

    • Here you have statesmen and old leaders that's why we were the leaders back then, and the USSR fell apart.   And who said I support Trump? I have never even been in USA in my life... Personally, I think he's a clown, but he unfortunately reflects the decline of our entire Western World- of which the USA was a leader for a long time.    
    • Latvia seriously attacking the anti-record in WJCh history with the fewest shots on goal in a game    4 SOG after 48 minutes is really quite atrocious stat  
    • My personal favorite in Canadian athlete is Valerie Grenier. She's so likeable and sweet
    • Canada had a great home-boost in 2010. Unfortunately, that's not the case in us – look at 2006... We won fewer medals in Torino 2006 than in 2002 (11 vs. 13)
    • Short-track is unpredictable and ridden by bullshit refs who give out weird penalties and home-advantage calls to favour the home athletes. Women’s hockey, we aren’t beating the US this time around, the rivalry series went horribly and I’d be happy if we can hang on to silver. It was that bad.    Freestyle skiing team, a lot of them have been getting injured our ski cross contenders (Hoffos, who was in the best form of her career, Sherret), Kingsbury, Oldham... Then you have Blouin, and reigning World Champion Liam Brearley in snowboarding, 2024 world champion in skeleton Hallie Clarke, and 2023 world champion in ski jumping Alexandria Loutitt who are all out injured for the season.   I don’t think you have anything to worry about, Italy will have a nice home boost and win 5-6 golds, but yeah that would’ve been pretty bad for us even before our entire team getting injured. I still view it as a disappointment either way. 
    • Do you have short track, freestyle, snowboardcross, hockey x2? You'll definitely win 5-6 gold medals. If you want, I'll gladly sign now for Italy to win 5-6 gold medals in February... Canada has at least 3 girls competing for medals in the long distances, and we only have 1 Lollobirigida- also quite old.
    • team is seriously in shambles and I wouldn’t be surprised if we only win a few bronzes or slightly better at Milano-Cortina…   Our men are nonexistent, Dubreuil still is awful coming back from injury and nowhere near his 2021-22 form, he’d be lucky to get a top 16 finish. Jan-Bloemen is old and his 5,000m WC podium was a fluke, at best it’ll be a top 8 finish in each event. For the women, Weidemann won’t beat Groenewoud/Wiklund in the 5km/10km and Blondin with Groenewoud (probably, she beats her all the time) or Mangianello in the mass start, and Maltais can only aim for a minor medal at best. We don’t even have our team pursuit anymore, used to be by far the best and now we’re getting beaten by Netherlands/Japan…
    • A true champion- van der Poel came to Beijing for 2 gold medal, and he won 2 gold there, without worrying about other people from the Netherlands: Roest, Norway, or any other country. These are the kinds of people Italy lacks.
