Good win by Latvia, definitely shocked me.
Also, was watching the medal ceremony for ice dancing and Tessa Virtue is drop dead gorgeous.

How can you say we have been disappointing as a country this olympics?
Fun fact yesterday of last olympics (day 10), Canada had a total of 10 medals, this year at that time we had 15.

All favourites, all choking.
Also our athletes just aren't getting funding like they were before 2010. We might just have to accept that we will never replicate what happened 4 years ago.

In Vancouver we got those breaks, I mean we still have 17 medals and will probably end up with a couple medals of Vancouver. I mean people really need to temper there expectations if they are expecting Vancouver like performance every Olympics because it isn't going to happen.

I like a lot of the Russian players but I think them losing to Finland would be great just because of the huge expectations put on Russian men's team coming into the tournament.
