Oh wow. What a weird goal with no time left for the US. Looks like a good goal with 0.1 sec left.

No goal. I can't believe they waived it off. Clearly it went in with 0.1 sec left.

alot of times when you get these weird countries competing in skiing it is someone from austria/switzerland or a country like them that wasnt good enough to be in their top 4 but has enough money to pay for their way to the olympics from the non traditional country

"Overhead" camera is at an offset angle.

Wild play, but a pretty easy no goal call.

Did they show any other angles other than the overhead? The overhead angle is completely inconclusive without any other angles. I turned it back to the hockey game while they were reviewing it, and all they showed after that was the overhead. It doesn't appear that the puck was on the ice, and the only way that's all the way across the line is if its sitting right on the ice.

Hughes in first (9 second lead over #2) with 6 skaters to go. Absolutely awesome skate, great way to end her career.

Sablikova has been absolutely dominant lately and I'm not convinced that Hughes' time will stand up, but I think it's definitely a medal skate.

Doesn't look like it. She's always seemed like a sprinter to me.
