Hey guys
just wanted to share the translation to Patrick's Sochi fs with French-Canadian commentators! Please do tell me if you see any mistakes and feel free to add corrections and what-not :thumbsup: (the commentators were mumbling most of the time....)

Here we go for Patrick Chan.
[0:22]Preparation…carefull…. 4T yes! Followed by the 3T! It’s been successfully attempted! Excellent! Marvellous!
[0:41]He’s skating to Vivaldi’s Four Seasons
Vivaldi the “Red Priest” because he was a redhead.
[0:50]Careful, second quad. Whoa!
By putting down his hands, he makes it.
[0:59]And now… the element he needs to hold, come on! Come on! Do it! Do it! Do it! Do it! No! Missed!
Oh!
[1:12]Missed the 3A…
The door was wide open, has it been closed again? Let’s see
[1:25] ((unclear))
[1:29]Come on! Come one, come on!
[1:35] ((unclear; something about his “young legs”??? what))
[1:42]It’s okay, he’s got to the part where he excels
The steps
[1:53] Jump spin, and then the seated position. Excellent rotations.
[2:14] He downright reaches it, sublimity.
[2:19]When he moves like that, we see something like a bird on the ice (??)
[2:25] 3lz yes! Half loop 3S, no 2S.
[2:37] Preparation, lz! Yes! Yes yes yes yes! Come on! Come on!
[2:47] Show them just how extraordinary you are, show them how you’re the best
[2:53]3lo
Yes!
He got it.
[3:02]Movements, in time with the music
The skating is free from all constraints
[3:10]He is at his best when he moves,
Careful, 3Fyes!-2T yes!
[3:24] The spin, spiral, on the back outside edge, but he skates it better than Yuzuru Hanyu. Better, the movements, the spins. All of these, he’s better.
[3:35]((??)), catch up.
[3:43]And he moves, he twirls, he turns around. He starts skating again.
[3:56] The 2A Oh! Mistake. Ah! Maybe a fatal one!
Maybe. Like an arrow to our hearts.
[4:15]A dramatic Olympic final
[4:25] The spiral spin, we are at the end of the program- the combination spin and the final spin that is crossfoot.
[4:42]Well , it will be difficult to judge, very difficult
[4:47] Oh it will be difficult, what a shame, I feel like that 2A at the end…
[4:55]Ah yes, it’s a whole you know? It’s every element that you need to look over and analyze. It’ll take a complete analysis of the program.
[5:07]The jury will have an enormous job. An enormous job.
[5:12]He needs 182.57 points to go in front of Hanyu.
Let’s not forget there’s still Liebers and Jason Brown.
And he had points behind [Hanyu] after the short program. [X2]
[5:25]But for the first place , it’s 182.57.
Oof. The door was wide open.
[5:35]We gave Hanyu 178 points
Yep
[5:42] We will wait, but there’s still more than 4 ((something; unclear))
Such hard tasks, we ask of them.
[5:54]So, the big errors, missed the 3A and the 2A
[6:02]So let’s see
This is the 4t from the start. It was extremely good
[6:11] The 3T that followed was perfect, and then the pressure went up because that was done well but there’s still the second quad to come and he will put his hands down.
[6:24]Right there. He held it, but he put his hands down
[6:30]Next, the 3A.
Right here….
[6:35]Yes, indeed, the rotation, the opening of the free leg, he almost had it. He reduced the exit.
[6:43]Next, the 3lz, the rotation, three turns, the exit, the half loop, and then a 2S instead of a 3S.
[6:58]Troublesome, because he could have added points
[7:07]So now…
Now…
Everything will fall on the components and the overall, the spins where he was superior compared to Hanyu.
[7:17]Yes absolutely.
[7:20]So 178, so he’s second.
So, without the effect of the gold medal-
[7:27]Congratulations.
Congratulations to Patrick Chan
So he’s right behind Yuzuru Hanyu, in front of Denis Ten.
[7:36]He gets 275.62 points in total. He that was, let us be reminded, 5th in Vancouver

Terrapin was nice enough to help out! Here are some corrections
Chan's FS in Sochi:
1 :25 : "une bataille terrible"
>>> It’s a terrible battle
1:35: "Ce que ces jeunes gens ont à subir est terrible"
>>> What these young people have to go through is so hard.
2:19 "Quand il bouge ainsi il vole comme un oiseau au-dessus de la glace"
>>> When he moves like that he looks like a bird flying on the ice.
3 :35 : "ça va se jouer à très peu"
>>> It’s going to be a close call
5 :42 : "va-t-on lui accorder 4 points ?"
>>> Are we going to grant him 4 points?
What a great news indeed to know if it's true (and an apology if it's the news that everyone here already knows but me...
, god why am I a late bloomer? Hehe.
