Drolet and Maltais now on to the B Final.. out of medal contention. No medals for Canada in short track today. Coaches and athletes are all looking disappointed.

Tough day for @speedskater01 Fall in the 1000m means elimination. Down to his last race 500m @CBCOlympics http://pbs.twimg.com/media/BggxP6SIUAA8sNV.jpg

Огромная Адлер Арена в Олимпийском парке.
Там всегда царит прекрасная атмосфера, да и есть за кого поболеть. На этих Играх я стал фанатом конькобежного спорта.

Huge roar in the Adler Arena as the speed skating fans were told that Russia has scored against the US in men's hockey. #Sochi2014
