  1. Geez, the Germans could go down the track sideways and still be top-3.
  2. This marks the first time a male and female Canadian earned medals in individual speed skating events since 1998. Speaking of which, Drubeuil's turn in the 500 reminded me of Jeremy Wotherspoon. Wotherspoon is one of the best sprint speed skaters of all time, earning multiple world records and world championship medals in the 500 and 1000 over several years. Yet, he had horrible Olympics, even falling once, and only has one silver in the 500 (1998). Truly one of the most prolific athletes to never get an Olympic gold in his sport. If you think missing gold after one great season is bad, imagine missing it after dominating several in a row.
  3. I believe with Norway's gold in biathlon they've now broken the record for most golds at a WOG (previously 14).
  4. Dubreuil makes up for his disappointment in the 500 with a surprise silver in the 1000!!!!!
  5. The Canadian announcers were so sure of that last shot, too. "He just did that shot! This is money for Gushue! He makes this 9/10 times!" Yeah, he just did that shot and missed badly. Are we watching the same team this week, it's more rare for them to make shots than to miss. I feel like both skips have golds and aren't interested in this game.
  6. Gushue had 2 shots at 3+ points and missed both. Two points is good, but I'm not exactly convinced either.
  7. Gushue falls backwards into 2 points. Had 2 shots at 3+ and missed both.
  8. Great final shot by Gushue, after some more really bad mistakes.
  9. Gushue just threw a stone right through the house in the 7th end down by one. Like....okay.
  10. Wow, another miss on an easy shot and Canada takes one when they were trying to blank. I don't know if our curlers could play worse if they tried.
  11. With Leman going out, this will be the first ski cross final without a Canadian, men's or women's. These Olympics are just getting better and better for Canada! Now to watch our curlers lose again...
  12. And now he's out. No Canadians in the finals for the first time ever. And they started off so strong.
