Other than the biographical information literally the only part of this tweet that is correct is that he qualified for a second Olympics ?‍♂️

:CAN Canadian Olympic trials, day 4

 

Women's 200m breast

  • Sydney Pickrem (already nominated, did not race at trials)
  • Kelsey Wog (2:23.40)

 

Men's 200m breast

  • No one with standard

 

Women's 200m butterfly

  • No one with standard

 

Men's 200m butterfly

  • No one with standard

 

Women's 100m freestyle

  • Taylor Ruck (already nominated, finished fifth 54.58)
  • Penny Oleksiak (52.89, her best time since 2016 Olympic final, I believe)
  • Kayla Sanchez (53.77) + Maggie MacNeil (54.02) round out the top 4, likely our relay team 

 

Men's 100m freestyle

  • Josh Liendo (48.13)

 

Top 4: Ruslan Gaziev ( 48.81 ), Markus Thormeyer (49.24)

 

Top 2 ranked: Kisil + Hayden withdrew from finals due to injury. So the relay team is a guess atp.

    What was kisils time in the morning?

     48.43, which was better than the A standard. Swimming Canada should do the right thing and name him to the team in this event.

    The Team announcement tomorrow is going to be fascinating. They've given themselves lots of flexibility in terms of who they select this time. I would expect them to name either Kisil or Hayden to the second spot in the 100m Free. I hope its Kisil. As much as I want to see Javi Acevedo names to the team it would be hard justify when they have Liendo, Gaslav, Thormeyer PLUS Hayden and Kisil hitting the A standard.

    According to the qualification document if there are less than two swimmers qualified in an event at trials Swimming Canada will nominate the next best ranked swimmer that has the A standard, and will nominate the best swimmer with the B standard and a FINA invitation in events where Canada doesn't have anyone qualified, as long as they pass a "review for competitive readiness", which is defined as them being reasonably able to match their qualifying time at the Olympics.

     

    The document very specifically says will, not may. From my reading of the document the only real discretion is if a swimmer is injured or otherwise no longer in good enough form to hit the standard.

    Interesting. I was under the inpression that they likely wouldn’t be taking some of the B standard athletes. I think with the priority listing in the qualification document they may not but didn’t notice the wording.

      • Khm, do we know the fate of the  license in pairs? I did not see confirmation of their entry.   If they fail  must get full license (team + individual) and one more place for team event will be available, am I correct?
      • Honestly, we did not expect more than 8. 2 additional places happened just becaues your double could not grab it due to the injury(?).
      • Vivat Slovakia    But in all seriousness, it's been repeatedly stated how important it is to qualify in a team event for the next Summer Olympics. However, I have no idea if we even have a realistic chance.   We only have one fewer individual athlete competing this year than we did in Paris, so individual quota spots aren't the main issue. Where can we find a competitive team, like we do in hockey? Maybe the women's handball team could start something big, but that's still far in the future, very likely unachievable in just two years.   And to be clear, as horrific as our medal tally from Paris looked, those were some of the unluckiest Olympics for Slovakia I have ever seen. Finishing in the top six seven times (!) is absolutely insane.
      • Biathlon (6 - 2W; 4M)   Anastasia Tolmacheva Andreea Mezdrea (our media put her in)   George Buta Raul Flore Dmitri Shamaev George Coltea   Bobsleigh (4M + 1 reserve)   Constantin Dinescu George Iordache Mihai Păcioianu Mihai Tentea     Figure Skating (1W)   Julia Sauter - flag bearer       Luge (7 - 3W; 4M)   Corina Buzatoiu Carmen Manolescu Raluca Stramaturaru   Denis Serban Marian Gîtlan Eduard Craciun Valentin Cretu     Ski Jumping (4 - 2W; 2M)   Delia Floea Daniela Haralambie   Daniel Cacina Mihnea Spulber   Alpine skiing (2 - 1W; 1M)   Sofia Moldovan   Alexandru Stefanescu   Nordic skiing (3 - 1W; 2M)   Delia Reit   Paul Pepene Gabriel Cojocaru   Snowboard (2W)   Kata Mandel Henrietta Bartalis   For me it’s a very special edition because two of my friends (Edi Craciun and Gabi Cojocaru) made it. So fingers crossed for them and for the whole delegation.   We don’t expect to much as usual in winter games (1-2 top 10 - luge team, women’s doubles luge, 2man bobsleigh, and maybe Julia Sauter if she will skate clean both programs)

      • I really hope Nordic Combined doesn't get scrapped. Actually, I believe the Winter Olympics should keep growing with new sports and disciplines (3x3 Hockey, Ice Cross, Speed Skiing, Ice Climbing), otherwise they won't feel like a true celebration of sports like their summer counterpart.
      • In fact, well, no. Hockey is extremely physically demanding, I even think it is the most physically demanding winter sport of all. I mean keeping more than a minute on ice is just cardiac. The shifts are there for a reason.   25 players rosters are absolutely justified. You must have 4 lines to keep the stamina the whole game.   Hard to persuade people who never watched hockey though, I can understand your point, but sadly, the point is wrong
      • Stats are ok, but the time she losts on the range every time... My point was that she is more likely to make us losing the olympic relay than to make us winning it.
