Harmony Village’s Favourite Sochi Moments
Canadian Women’s Hockey - The Canadian women’s hockey team put on an amazing performance, scoring two goals to tie the game in less than four minutes. The game winning goal came from two-time Olympic champion Marie-Philip Poulin who described the moment as “a dream come true”.
Speed Skating - Short-track speedskater Charle Cournoyer brought home Bronze in the men’s 500-metre short-track race while his teammate - Denny Morrison took home two medals – Silver in men’s speed skating (1000m) and Bronze in men’s speed skating (1500m).
Hockey, Hockey, Hockey! A truly Canadian sport, the Gold medal win in the men’s hockey was nothing short of spectacular. Canadians across the country were up at the crack of dawn to cheer on our boys to a 3-0 victory over Sweden.
Congrats to all our athletes – you’ve made us proud!
