It's a fine comparison. If anything, you would think with the greater pool of talent for TC to pull from the women's team would be of a much higher skill level.

Once again, I don't know why you continue to bring this up?
You guessing that a 17 year old male speed skater can't beat a 37 year old female speed skater has very little bearing on this conversation.
What if you are wrong? What if a 17 year old male speed skater
can best clara hughes' time? Should speed skating be a male only sport?
