Touche, I forgot about the mixed team.
But this kind of feels like the Stamps discussion all over again. Hockey and curling are the two sports Canada is most well known for and takes great pride in being dominant in. To come away with zero golds between the mens and womens hockey teams and the mens and womens curling teams is a real disappointment and a let down IMO.
