Patrice Lauzon Quotations

I don't know what happened, it's never happened before. The lifts are usually our strength and for some reason, Marie slipped.

I don't know what happened. There might have been too much force on the rotation.

When we skated, we thought of it as our last (Canadians) and we skated it as our last. But it might not be. We don't know. But it was amazing to skate with that feeling. It was very emotional.

She is hurting from the knee to the lower back. She is getting treatment. I don't know if she'll be able to skate. She was not able to walk yesterday.

I did it in the first practice, I don't have to do it again.

From first to I don't know what, there's only a point (difference). It's very close.

For us, compulsories are one of our strengths. We love doing them.

I think it will be the most interesting ice dance competition we will ever see.

Yeah, we haven't seen them in four years, and now they're back on top. We haven't seen them skate once in practice because we're on a totally different schedule, but I guess they didn't lose anything.

We thought of it as our last and we skated like it was our last but it might not be. We'll decide that after Calgary.

It was very emotional. We wanted to cry even before we started skating.

It was a long journey and there were a lot of emotions tonight. There was a lot of pressure (on us), but we did it great and we were very strong.

That never happened so far for a dance lift. Perhaps there was too much force in the rotation.

This is something that's never happened before. Maybe it's because there was too much in the rotation. I just hope Marie is fine. She fell pretty hard.

I'm hoping Marie is fine. She fell really hard on (the hip).

I'm hoping she's fine. But she fell really hard.

I just hope Marie's fine. We'll have to see how she is, and then we'll deal with it.

The entry is a bit different but it looks similar. The new way, I can spin full out.

The entry (to the lift) is a bit different, but it kind of looks the same.

You can use the crowd like fuel, and that's what we did.

It was even closer at Olympics. We were within the same point up to sixth or seventh place.

We were probably a little more nervous going into it than usual but I think we skated great.

I came because there is a chance we might skate tonight, and if she does, at least I'll have had been on some ice and be able to help her more.
