Filip Gravenfors (freestyle skiing) Broke his collarbone during Sweden’s pre-Olympic training camp https://www.instagram.com/p/DUD6BfYgqQO/?igsh=MXNoMjBjaWlyazc1OA== All the best in your recovery Filip!

Very nice analysis, a few things here. Bobsleigh: In Love's last 7 races, she hasn't finished better than 8th, unlikely she’ll medal. Also just a small correction, it's Kailie, you must've got her confused with someone else Short Track Speed Skating: I'd say there's a really good chance you win at least 2-3 medals. Stoddard has been on fire this season, she's won 8 medals in 12 events, Santos Griswold has a decent chance in each of the women's distances, mainly the 500m. Women's relay won medals at two of the WCs, and the mixed relay has a chance if other top nations (Korea, Netherlands, Canada, China) crash in the semifinals, don't think they match up raw power wise. Snowboarding: Choi, Shimizu, and possibly Kudo (more inconsistent) will push Kim if she is indeed at her best, but it's hard to bet against someone like her. Mastro is an outside chance in halfpipe, competition might be too much for her. Men's snowboard cross has no chance , and mixed team with Gaskill/Baumgartener or Vedder is probably an outside chance.

Thanks!

For Marielle Thompson and Mikael Kingsbury @hckošice

Mikael Kingsbury and Marielle Thompson have been announced as flagbearers! https://www.instagram.com/p/DUDvdy2AeHt/?igsh=MXBibzI3Yno2cWJ1NQ==

Jokes aside, while I really hope for Kingsbury to win double gold, Homan to win gold, and Strate to win Canada's first individual ski jumping medal, most of all... my biggest wishes are for Eliot Grondin to win gold in snowboard cross and the men's hockey team to win gold, I'd probably be crying tears of happiness if that happened. It would mean that much to me.

Final week of sports before a few days off for the Olympics! Australian Open, Scotties semifinal/final, Ski Cross WC Val di Fassa, Parallel GS WC Rogla, probably some alpine skiing depending on if I have time or not

They might've done this last time around and I never noticed, but CBC Sports is streaming the non-Canadian sports matches too

Right, I forgot about that. Unfortunate, one of Canada’s greatest athletes and ambassadors of sport and he won’t get a chance to be a flagbearer ever with this almost certainly being his final Olympics.

Come on man, don’t keep being pessimistic Yeah that would be disappointing, however Italians have performed well enough the past few seasons that I don’t think it’ll happen. Think you’ll be more in the 23-25 medal rang Yep, I’m hoping so too, always nice to see athletes winning Olympic medals at home.

It’s just @copravolley , @phelps is joking I think

Crosby would be a better choice for the closing ceremony probably, depending on how the team does

Flagbearers will be announced tomorrow!

It should've been McMorris anyways, he had the best run of the day and Canada still should've gone 1-2-3

Dupont has been in exceptional form these past few events, she could contend with Hasselborg, Gim, and Rui for bronze (I think Tirinzoni/Homan are a level ahead, upsets are possible), although I do agree it's hit or miss

Oh for f*cks sake, not another athlete injured

Found this country music song recently, it's not my jam usually don't last past the first watch, but this is good Crazy that it's a song made for a movie.

Victor Primeau replaces Alex Duchaine, who suffered a concussion recently and will miss out on the Olympics https://www.instagram.com/p/DT_LMDakUUi/?igsh=dGIyeGV4ZzZkcjB1

I'll be watching Olympics, Paralympics, Commonwealth Games, Asian Games, and my first SYOG Asian Games there'll be qualification towards LA 2028 right?

15, lowest medal count for since Nagano 1998 Total disaster in almost every single event Kidding, but something tells me we won't have a "successful" Olympics, half of our realistic gold medal chances come in short track and we're probably gonna get penalized by the judges or crash knowing our luck

It does when looking at results, but she's a lesser known athlete compared to the others The was for Rowell instead of Mahler (should've clarified it better), Rowell might have better potential for a high finish but only Mahler has a chance at the podium when he's at his best even if its unlikely That's funny

Alpine skiing and ski cross teams named Lamontague and Alexander grab the last two women’s spots in alpine skiing, Rowell instead of Mahler in mens ski cross https://www.instagram.com/p/DT-tUi1DviX/?img_index=15&igsh=MXZ3NzhqdjY0b3ZmOQ==
