Skate Canada International: Weaver and Poje were runners-up once again to Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir this past weekend at Skate Canada International, but the gap between scores was the closest it's ever been -- giving Canada not one, but two ice dance teams that could reach the medal podium at the Sochi Olympics, according to CTV. "We've grown up with them, it feels like, for the past six years that we've been on the international circuit. Every time we get to share the ice with them I feel like we get stronger because they're everything we strive to be." SAINT JOHN, N.B. -- They've long competed in the shadow of Canada's Olympic ice dance champions, but Kaitlyn Weaver and Andrew Poje don't mind flying under the radar into Sochi. "Being in the same sentence as Scott and Tessa is an extreme honour for us," Weaver said, after their lyrical free skate tango Saturday night to music by Argentine composer Astor Piazaolla.
