HOCKEY: Callum Ng checking in from Sochi -
What's the energy like in Sochi, Callum? -
LUGE: Thanks for tuning in to our luge coverage folks! This is the final luge event of the Games, but keep it here for coverage of BOBSLEIGH and SKELETON. In the mean time, make sure to switch over to our hockey/ figure skating coverage going on this very second.
-
HOCKEY: As far as Canadians go it is excitement, at the same time there are plenty of Norwegian fans...although Norway isn't a hockey powerhouse, they are in winter sport.
-
Norway hits the back of the net! -
And as I was suggesting before, here is what Chan had to say about being the man chasing the leader... -
"I like being in second, I like being in the chase... Now I can go out and enjoy my program." - Patrick Chan.
-
HOCKEY: The assists were from Getzlaf and Marleau
-
HOCKEY: He just walked into the slot there
-
We'll have a story on Chan's reaction and where things stand on Olympic.ca later.
-
The final flight of skaters are now finishing their warmups. Brezina, as I wrote earlier, will skate first. His opening element a quad salchow.
-
HOCKEY: One of the Norwegian players is down, needed to be helped off, Trygg
-
HOCKEY: Canada's physicality is evident
-
HOCKEY: Trygg heading to the dressing room, needed help
-
-
Brezina completes his short program. He looks relieved. Seemed to come in a bit stiff and nervous but warmed up. Now he looks much happier.
