2019 Canadian Nationals Senior Men Free Skate

[DanseMacabre]

Keegan has a lot of things I like, but he has to get away from these “aw shucks” programmes or I’m going to gouge my eyes out.

Is he honestly capable of anything else? I have doubts about his artistic range tbh

Canadians:

I never listened to a whole flight of skating with Rod Black before tonight.

My friends, you are saints

He only does Nationals, thankfully (maybe some of SCI sometimes). CBC doesn't use him and they have everything else.

Imagine if you were doing a drinking game with the 14 thing... :eeking:

All of Golden Skate, found dead in a ditch.

He was worse than usual.

I’m kinda really angry that Conrad doesn’t have his TES minimums and is essentially getting passed over, as is Jo, but at least he will get to Jr Worlds.

Only 2 JW spots unfortunately

Until next year, where if he wins he’ll still be the youngest as his birthday is after Nam’s...

I think this is probably the best outcome for Gogolev. He still had a good skate, but maybe this will be a little less pressure than if he had won. Silver is nothing to sneeze at.

ESPECIALLY AT 14! Just in case you didn't know how old he is.

Conrad gets passed over and gets nothing.

We would all be dead by now.

I agree. I think it is a blessing in disguise to not win. He should be proud of himself.

I wish CTV/TSN would use Sara Orlesky or find someone like Andi Petrillo, both are more well-spoken and not nearly as irritating.

Rod Black drives me batty. After all these years commentating on skating you'd think he would have actually picked up a thing or two.

It's been a Canadians filled with comebacks. Nam wins. Alaine wins. Kirsten Moore-Towers is golden again. Even Weaver and Poje to a degree.

I’d still be alive, because I cut off both my ears hours ago and I haven’t learned sign language yet.

I'd be passed out. Rod needs to stop.

The whole event has been just a great collegiate atmosphere. Nam and BORser backstage, Keegan and Nam Bros4Lyfe, it's great. I love you Canadian Mens Skating.

Couldn't they get their minimums at a B competition and do 4CCs?

Conrad on Instagram Stories: "All done √ Wasn't the long I was hoping for, but I gave it my all (except on the sal). Thanks to everyone who supported me this season! <3"

I kept thinking it was so great to watch so many of the skaters being genuinely happy for each other doing well. Canadians proving the truth of the stereotype of nice Canadians.

Not enough time before 4CCs
