Canadian Medal Events on Monday

On Day 2 of the Milano-Cortina Olympics, Canada faced challenges, finishing fifth in the figure skating team event and failing to secure medals in speed skating and cross-country skiing. The mixed doubles curling team of Jocelyn Peterman and Brett Gallant was eliminated from playoff contention after losing two matches. In a significant international event, American skier Lindsey Vonn crashed and sustained a broken leg. Looking ahead, Canada has medal opportunities with Megan Oldham and Naomi Urness in women’s slopestyle skiing and Béatrice Lamarche in the women’s 1,000m speed skating.
