Bilodeau or Humphries/Moyse IMO. Or even Denny Morrison.
Where was Junio expected to place in the 1000m btw? Can't find the answer in any articles.

Gil is much better in the 500m than the 1000m right now. He's a decent sprinter which is why his 10th place in the 500m was a little disappointing.
In the 1000m he'd would have been top 30, top 20 if he had a really good race.
