If the stone was burned, shouldn’t the Danes have removed voluntarily? My knowledge is kind of limited to Men with Brooms. ��
According to curling rules, the non offending skip has the option of removing the stone, leaving the stone where it ended up, or placing it where they believe it would have ended up. Homan did nothing wrong, but the burning of the stone did not fundamentally affect the path of the stone and most would leave the stone as it landed (an unwritten rule, as Mike Harris alluded to).

The game is not well played. But, it’s interesting to watch a team as good as Canada struggle and have the commentators discuss how they should be working the ice to learn the lanes, etc.
The Tongan didn't finish last in the 15km cross country ski event. He finished 114 out of 116. Came ahead of a Colombian and a Mexican. The Mexican athelete waved a big Mexican flag down the final stretch and celebrated as he crossed the finish line in last. Great spirit by the last few guys just happy to finish.
