Team Canada pix and vid at Tromso
For the last day off before the final round at the 2014 Olympiad, here are some photos and video links for the Canadian Team.
I have sifted and collected photos of Canadians from various sources, and edited and reposted 20+ of them here, which includes the one above (Rd.6 vs Belarus) and most of the ones below.

Canadian Photos:
I have sifted and collected photos of Canadians from various sources, and edited and reposted 20+ of them here.
The best source of photos of Canadian players is Qiyu Zhou's facebook page, with hundreds of pix posted by her mom.
More Photos
There are hundreds of photos posted after each round on the official site.
Paul Truong takes lots of excellent photos (of everyone, not just Canadians) and not all of them make it to the official site. There are lots more on his Picassa Album -- all in high resolution -- which you can find via his wife's blog.
