A bit of a surprise Patrick Roest took 2nd place.
Bronze to Korea.
As for Canada; both skater finsished outside the top 12. Morrison was on pace for a medal until the final lap. Race was about 350m too long for him. I don't know if he skates the 1000m but he could be in medal contention.
I thought De Haitre had a bad race. I had him as an outsider for a medal but he didn't look sharp/aggressive.

I can accept the usage of "we did great" by a non-Canadian if it comes from a Dutch person speaking about speed skating. Well done and congratulations.
