Wow. What an incredible journey for O'Dine.

I had no idea how much she had been through.

That 2-3 day span during the 2018 Olympics sounds as hard a time as it gets

Smart play.

Wasn't a projected medalist in the event and best to save her stamina for the events (Team Pursuit & Mass Start) in which she is a medal hopeful.

That was rough. She just lost her edge on the turn or something. She was killing it.

Sarault and Charles (by way of advancement) are through go the Quarterfinals of Women's 1000m Short Track.

Just pure devastation for Kim Boutin though, a big medal hopeful in the event.

Sarault is a potential medal hopeful as well

Pascal Dion with a last place finish in his 1500m Semi Final.

Not the redemption he was looking for after his wipeout in the 1000m

Pascal Dion was absolutely gassed by the end of that race, I wonder if he came on too strong

Man... now Dubois goes down in his Semi Final. Hopefully he moves on advancement as he was bumped while in a qualifying position

I thought that Hungarian guy bumped Dion pretty good there. Looked like a bodycheck. I enjoy watching this but I've stopped trying to understand what is a penalty.

So we have controversy once again in figure skating apparently.

The team medal ceremony has been postponed until a "legal issue" with the Russians is resolved. Apparently a bunch of them missed their training sessions earlier amidst some sort of claim against them that if proven true, and they get DQ'd, Canada would then move into the bronze position.

Yea, I'm in full agreement, although that might be my Canadian bias. Thought for sure that was a penalty
