I was so warmed by our "Blade Angels", especially Alysa Liu and Amber Glenn and the genuine love and concern they had for other skaters. Alysa's heartfelt embrace of the third-place skater, and Amber shielding Kaori Sakamoto from the cameras while she cried and regained her composure are things I will never forget. These types of things did not used to happen when there were Russian skaters on the ice. They happened on the men's side too, apparently, just not so openly, but Ilia Malinin and Mikhail Shaikhodorov are quite friendly.
