I realize they have "home field" advantage, but the Canadians are ON FIRE!!! I'm begining to think they may even have Meng Wang sweating! D'ya think? I guess the biggest disappointment to the home crowd would be that the Men's relay team won't be in the A Final after setting the world record last week. Hey, did the Live Stream just cut off for everyone? Mine's showing "Live stream starts in 18 days 5 h 17 mn...

Again, J.R. was not taking any chances - he passed Charles Hamelin, not settling for second, with Victor An challenging in 3rd. J.R. won the heat, and will be in the A Final!
Kyle Carr qualified for the B Final, so we'll be seeing him again, too!

Awww, man - Jessica tried a pass on Gilmartin. Not enough room, and they both went down. But I've learned better than to try to call any PEN's. I was 100% wrong in Calgary...

Wow, Canada has a chance for a podium sweep in the Ladies' 500M(2)!

And they're gonna get it, 'cause Borodulina fell at the start!

I was kinda shocked to see Jessica with no PEN. But I'm with you. I'll leave that to the referees. Is this the Canadian channel? All I see is Canadian skinsuits!

Holy Fajita! Kim passed to take second, but he got a PEN! Another Canadian sweep!
