OK, there is Johnny and Evan but who is third best?
But if we are talking about all the other stuff - I wouldn't say that Abbott is the third best man in the US, but at least the second best - perhaps even the best.
He surpasses Evan in nearly every aspect of skating - skills, interpretation, musicality, spins (love those ), did I mention musicality, choreography, his Quad and the basic jumping technique is better than Evan's, and don't forget musicality.
He also surpasses Johnny in a few aspects, he can skate convincingly to most music (loved the combo of his Santana-SP and Waltz-LP this season, so diverse), he has a Quad, his spins are faster most of the times... Perhaps his jumping technique is not as sound as Johnny's (except for the Triple Loop and the Quad, Abbott's Triple Loop is one of the best in the business), and sometimes he seems to lack, I don't know - extension, body tension.
