A lucky loonie may have helped make Canadian Olympic history. Cheap Air Max 1 For Sale . Jan Hudec became the first Canadian in 20 years to win an Olympic medal in alpine skiing on Sunday when he captured a bronze in the mens super-G competition. Hudec, of Calgary, planted the coin at the finish line before he crossed it with a time of one minute, 18.67 seconds, tying him with American Bode Miller for the bronze. "Who cares if it helped," Hudec said after the race, laughing. "That loonie is worth more than a buck now, I can tell you that." Kjetil Jansrud of Norway won gold with a time of 1:18.14, and American Andrew Weibrecht took the silver at 1:18.44. The last Canadian to win an Olympic medal in alpine was Ed Podivinsky, who won a bronze in the downhill event at the 1994 Olympics in Lillehammer, Norway. No Canadian man has ever won a gold or silver medal at the Olympics in alpine. "Its almost like it doesnt even belong to me," Hudec said. "Theres just been so many people that have supported me and seen me through to this point that its the peoples medal, more or less. "Im just so stoked that I could put down a race today. Ive always been kind of a racehorse and I put it down when the pressures on." In order to even make it to Sochi, Hudec had to overcome a herniated disk he suffered in mid-January, which put his participation at these Games in question, not to mention the seven knee injuries hes endured over his career. Podivinsky and Steve Podborsky are the only other Canadian men with an Olympic alpine medal. Podborsky won bronze in the downhill in 1980 at Lake Placid. Kerrin Lee-Gartner is the last Canadian to capture Olympic gold in alpine, winning the womens downhill event at the 1992 Olympics in Albertville.

It was another disappointment for Guay, who finished fifth in this discipline at the 2010 Vancouver Olympics, missing the podium by three one-hundredths of a second. Rookie Olympian Morgan Pridy of Whistler, B.C., put in a strong run of one minute, 19.19 seconds to finish 10th. Rounding out the Canadian contingent was North Vancouvers Manuel Osborne-Paradis (tied for 24th), who did not have a strong performance, finishing 2.05 seconds back of Jansrud.
