Grand finale! Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir stole the show at the ice skating gala as the PyeongChang Olympic Games came to a close. The proud Canadians paid tribute to one of Scott's heroes, the late Gord Downie, by skating to The Tragically Hip's "Long Time Running." <p>Photo: &copy; Getty Images
The stunning routine is one that the duo performed last year just weeks after the Canadian icon succumbed to his cancer.
