Record number of Oly Silver medalists, Golden 4 years later, could be smashed in 2010
I dont believe there has ever been more than 1 Olympic Silver medalist, return 4 years later to win Gold. That could be smashed in 2010. There is a very good chance of Zhang/Zhang, Lambiel(if his knees get better), and Belbin/Agosto all winning gold in 2010; and even a chance for Cohen if she chooses to continue, since she will only be 25, not too "old" like Kwan and Slutskaya would be by then, and as Arakawa showed this year, and the Asadas and Meissners of this World may have gone through puberty and not be as efficient afterwords. So a very good chance of atleast 2, which would be a first time as far as I know, a reasonable chance of 3, and even a chance of 4 doing it.
