Dube/Davison would not qualify as a new elite, they have been around for long time now. They were lucky P/T were out of shape and there were none else to challenge. And I am not taking away from them the fully deserving win.
It said New Elite, so I repsonded, they won one Grand Pix event and that's great. But they are hardly a new elite in what they have shown at this event. No radical improvement IMO and nothing new in thier skating. They win is the loss of the competetitors. Finally, as u mentioned they have been full two seasons at Senior International level but still almost got beat in TCS by Bazarova/Larionov.Two seasons on the international senior circuit is a "long time"? Wow, so you think Tara Lipinski had a long career? Michelle Kwan and Irina Slutskaya must be prehistoric corpses in your time frame.

If Patrick Chan continues on this path, then Jeffrey Buttle has a very legitimate challenger to the Canadian mens' throne.
As much as I love Jeff, he needs to be pushed here at home. That really hasn't happened. We haven't had a really great rivalry here in Canada since the Kurt/Elvis years and look at the skating that gave us.
