Ole Einar Bjørndalen recognised as best male athlete at 2014 Olympics

Now the most decorated winter Olympian ever, Bjørndalen won 2 Gold medals in Sochi.  He has a career total of 13 medals (8 gold, 4 silver and 1 bronze).  Worth noting that he won 2 golds this year at the age of 40.  Canadian hockey teams won both the team awards (men and women).  Hockey is to Canada what cross country skiing is to Norway what speed skating is to the Netherlands.  Best female athlete was speed skater Irene Wust, from the Netherlands, with 3 gold and 2 silver medals in Sochi.
