And I also have to share this amazing gif of Ján Laco's hip check on Tereshenko from yesterday's Slovakia-Russia game
I don't like hockey, but this is too funny.

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES Gold medal for our ski jumpers !!!!
After the unluck we had in the individual competitions, especially Severin Freund, it's a very big relief and happiness! Such a young team, but they keep their nerves!
What a thrilling fight against our big rival Austria
8th golden medal, so we stabilize our first rank in medal table

Congrats Germany! I was rooting for you, when I saw that we won't get any medal today. Great job! 
I'm so proud of our ski jumpers, even though they were fifth today. But hey, this is also a great result! I think we can also be very proud of Robert Kranjec. This are probably his last games and he didn't want to dissapoint his team despite his knee injury. I must say that I'm very happy for Peter Prevc and his 2 medals When I first saw him I said that he'll become very good in ski jumping. And I'm so delighted that I was right!
Despite I'm not such a fan of Austrian ski jumping team (I just can't stand Pointner and Schlierenzauer, sorry), I must mention Thomas Morgenstern here. He's one of my favourite ski jumpers and also my favourite one from Austrian team. A month ago he couldn't even breathe by himself and look at him now! He truly is a fighter
Well, at this point I doubt, that we'll get any more medals on this games. The whole Slovenia is proud on our athletes. Can't wait for them to return home. I'm sure there's going to be a huge reception for all of them

the moment when2
And
has the same amount of golds as Norway got another medal today, in biathlon. Tora Berger was our big hope, but she fell after 1 km, and never really recovered from that. But fortunately, we got a nice surprise, as Tiril Eckhoff surprised everybody (including herself), and got a bronze.
Now we're looking forward to biathlon, cross-country skiing (and hopefully the ski problems have been solved), boardercross, curling (I think we almost got elimininated today), and an extremely tough hockey match against Russia. I read that if we beat Russia in hockey, the rest of the Olympics will be cancelled.
Updated (5th in the table now):
5 Gold (Kjetil Jansrud, Maiken Caspersen Falla, Marit Bjørgen, Ola Vigen Hattestad, Ole Einar Bjørndalen)
3 Silver (Ingvild Flugstad Østberg, Ståle Sandbech, Tora Berger)
7 Bronze (Anders Bardal, Heidi Weng, Kjetil Jansrud, Magnus Krog, Martin Johnsrud Sundby, Therese Johaug, Tiril Eckhoff)
the moment when
No worries, we've got lots more chances left - there's still women's bobsled (Kaillie and Heather are the defending champions and they've been cleaning up), guaranteed at least a silver in women's hockey, curling, ski halfpipe (we've got some contenders there) and of course men's hockey

@Trece The camera men did their job very well
The medal table is very tight... so many countries with 5 golden medals. I'm curious which countries will stand out in the remaining days
It's so sad that a winter sports nation like Finland is without any gold medal since 2002 :?
barely 2 medals up to now...
Italy disappointing as well, no gold medal.

I just realised something
Our president Borut Pahor promised, that for every goal that our hockey team will get on this games, he will skate on ice for an hour. I would really like to see him skating for 10 hours (and maybe even more)
