Enero February 16, 2018 Share February 16, 2018 Poor Patrick. Well there goes his final Olympic dreams. At least he has an Individual Silver and Team Gold. How fitting was his music and sad. :( I love how supportive this crowd is. No matter who the skater is they give them respect. 6 Link to comment
mtlchick February 16, 2018 Share February 16, 2018 Well he landed two of them so.... I don't know who the microphone picked up but someone yelped when he fell. I'm wondering if it was him. Link to comment
kittykat February 16, 2018 Share February 16, 2018 Damn that score was not even close to the rest of the field. I agree that OAR might have messed up not using Aliev. Link to comment
AshleyN February 16, 2018 Share February 16, 2018 (edited) Oh Patrick...the triple axel was always his nemisis, but he seems to have lost it completely at this point. I still do love to watch his pure skating though. Just gorgeous. Edited February 16, 2018 by AshleyN 2 Link to comment
Growsonwalls February 16, 2018 Share February 16, 2018 Has Patrick Chan ever known how to do a triple axel? Link to comment
Silver Raven February 16, 2018 Share February 16, 2018 How did they give Chan 6 points and a yellow for the axel when he didn't even land it and wound up on his butt? Link to comment
SeanC February 16, 2018 Share February 16, 2018 That was mostly a reminder of what Chan was so formidable in his prime. If he could have landed that triple axel...but, ah well. 2 Link to comment

Popular Post Dots And Stripes February 16, 2018 Popular Post Share February 16, 2018 NBC talked about Chan reinventing men's figure skating. He perfected the art of completing four rotations before falling. 28 Link to comment
gatopretoNYC February 16, 2018 Share February 16, 2018 I'm not a huge Patrick Chan fan, but I really enjoyed that program. Too bad about the fall. Link to comment
Paws February 16, 2018 Share February 16, 2018 Chan reminds me of Todd Eldridge...any time he was under pressure he fell. Well, at least any time I saw him skate. I had an early bedtime in the 80s. 15 Link to comment
displayname February 16, 2018 Share February 16, 2018 Glad Aliev's ahead of Chan, but what's that score? O.o Link to comment

I feel like there was a minute in the run-up to Sochi where he was hitting it more than not? Wasn’t he the first to crack 100 in the short in that season’s Grad Prix? I would have loved to see this program performed totally clean just once. I dig everything about it. 3 Link to comment

specialj67 February 16, 2018 Share February 16, 2018 It’s bonkers that 4 years ago, Jason Brown was in the final flight of skaters for the free skate at Sochi with a score in the mid-80s. And this time around they’re all probably going to be at least in the mid-90s. 2 Link to comment

COESpiral February 16, 2018 Share February 16, 2018 I think Adam is ridiculous at times, but at least he doesn't give a rote interview. No "I'm just out there to have fun and do my best and it's all in the hands of the judges now" standard commentary. 15 Link to comment

There's really no joy left, and that's sad. Rippon who knows he's got probably no chance at a medal and yet he's having all sorts of fun. I know it's still a competition but I'd rather watch someone who is still enjoying themselves. 14 Link to comment
