Meant to be a nice place to discuss the event before the start orders are available...
McNamara/Carpenter should be fired up here. I hope they're gunning for a redemption from how their season went.
If not for loboda and drozd could be a US sweep. Still might be a US sweep.
Carreira/Ponomarenko skated very strong in US Nationals so it's possible.
Then again, I gonna assume that RusFed will do anything to keep Loboda/Drozd on the podium (which yes, they deserve anyway due to their consistent skating this season)
One thing about junior ice dance is that it still seems to have that old 'wait your turn' thing going on. I highly doubt you'll see a team go from 13th to first in one season. Or even 7th to 1st. Though next season should be a bit more interesting as quite a few teams age out. This is the last time we'll see a few of these teams skate as juniors...

Quick question... Why does it seem more common in ice dance for skaters to age out rather than opt for moving to Senior of their own accord?
Also, why are there no just-age eligible dance team? Having 13/14 year olds in jr seems rather common in singles, but ice dancers always seem on the older end of juniors.
