Bozak must be pretty jealous that Kessel is bunking with JVR.

Who's Daniel Sedin bunking with? maybe one of the figure skaters?

Those guys move as quick in some of the portions as the average person would on a downhill.

Either way its often not about the speed. Often its about stepping in a ditch. If your foot is in a ditch and the tips aren't, it can bend them to the point of snapping. They're sort of like hockey sticks in that regard. If you see some of those pics of guys shooting and their sticks bending, skis will bend like that, but will also snap if gone too far.

That said, I didn't see what broke his ski.

First time a head in the medal counts. We won most GOld last Olympics, but this is the first time we have had the most medals on the medal count board. Very cool.

they say they're not completely sure of that, as the records in the early ones aren't great, but they're pretty sure.

Pretty cool

Haha even JVR is making Kessel/Bozak boyfriend jokes. Love it.

I must admit, I'm going to be pulling for USA when they're not up against Canada. That Kessel - Pavelski - JVR line could be really fun to watch if that's what they go with.

Good to see.
But we are only 4 days in....and the first week is where Canada should rack up most of its medals. In Vancouver, it was the second week.
Its been exciting so far.

And that is why we watch the Olympics: Canadian coach gives spare xcountry ski to Russian, who was determined to finish his race. #Sochi2014
