What a disaster....
-
Kingsbury with the silver is absolutely bizarre given the runs that others did. Perplexing.
-
This feels big!
-
That didn't last long 😂
-
I’m happy to hear there were parties happening.
-
Im on the west coast and I’m just committed to a weird sleep schedule this weekend.
-
I think Pierre-Gilles got a worst draw with Elistratov and Wu Dajing, although he is a 500m specialist.
-
I’m surprised he’s not part of the relay squad for today. I’m really hoping they can pull off something special.
-
Definitley most excited for short track. I’m a little surprised Hamelin didn’t get chosen for the 1000m but I really get the sense that becoming a parent has made him more appreciative of the experience as a whole.
-
That’s the reverse of what ended up happening. Welp it was not to be this time. In other news Homan and Morris are starting to gel and find their groove. And there’s been some decent training runs from the mens downhill.

Japan is being helped by some poor scores by others. In the ice dance it depends on if the judges want to reward more.
-
It's still early but they seem much more confident today.
-
I did see it earlier and it’s somehow worse than I imagined.
-
She missed a few shots but the fact that they played this poorly and still kept it relatively close against the world champion is promising.

Curling Mixed Doubles Tournament at the Winter Olympic Games Beijing 2022
james89 replied to Totallympics's topic in Curling
I thought this was perplexing too lol -
I mean they've never won a WOG medal so it would be kinda cool if they won. Still pulling for Canada though.
-
Let's hoping he arrives for that. And that Japan underperforms in pairs and Canada overperforms (not that I want to cheer against Japan I just want Canada to win the bronze).
-
I wasn't expecting Hamelin given his events the next day but he is a fantastic choice.
-
Oh - I know that....I was just agreeing that Canada's chances in the team event were contingent on him over-performing so scratch that off the list of medal possibilities. I just realized the men's figure skating event is the first of the individual events.....eeek.
-
Here's hoping he makes it before the individual event - Canada was really going to need him to over perform and the Japanese pair to under perform to get the bronze.

Winter Olympic Games Beijing 2022 News
james89 replied to Yannakis's topic in Winter Olympic Games Beijing 2022
23 medals doesn't seem wildly off (although I'm of course hoping for more). It was just 5 snowboard medals compared to 4 in Freestyle Skiing that stood out to me. -
Scott Gow did have that impressive World Cup performance where he shot clean. It could happen. Disappointing it didn’t happen with Harvey last time but the 4th place in the 50km was impressive
-
Hopium is a great word for how I am currently feeling (even if it may have been a typo). I have hope we will see great results from all Canadian athletes in all sports whether they are podium finishes or not. An Alpine medal would be delightful - the Canadian team seems to be showing some great non-podium finishes at this years World Cup so it would not be totally out of left field. Cheers!
-
A warm welcome. I’m hoping that it’s somewhere about 25. I’m kind of thinking about 5 key groupings if sports that will win about 5 medals each (Speed Skating, Short Track, Freestyle Skiing, Snowboard, hockey/curling) with a few chances in bobsleigh and less so figure skating to help round up.
-
I have to go with Vancouver since its the one I've been too and volunteered at.
