Now that all the Olympic spots have officially been given out in the men's event, and I do not believe there will be any immediate handing back of spots, here is what we can gather for what the roster will look like, with skaters locked, probable, and possible, with four alternates listed(in at least one discipline in 2006, the third alternate made it to the Olympics):
1. USA: Evan Lysacek, locked
2/3. USA: Jeremy Abbott and Johnny Weir, frontrunners over Adam Rippon, Brandon Mroz, Stephen Carriere, and Ryan Bradley
4. CAN: Patrick Chan, locked
5. CAN: Vaughn Chipeur, frontrunner over Jeremy Ten, Kevin Reynolds, and Shawn Sawyer
6. FRA: Brian Joubert, one recent IceNetwork article implied he may already be officially qualified, locked either way
7. FRA: Florent Amodio, frontrunner over Yannick Ponsero and Alban Preaubert
8. CZE: Tomas Verner, locked
9. CZE: Michal Brezina, in theory would have had to made top 16 in the World and Top 8 at Europeans this year. As there was only one spot at Worlds last year hopefully the first requirement will be waived. For the second, hopefully he'll make it, but it might not be enforced anyway
10. ITA: Samuel Contesti, locked
11. ITA: Karl Zalenka, very probable
12. JPN: Daisuke Takahashi, locked
13. JPN: Nobunari Oda, locked
14. JPN: Takahiko Kozuka, locked
15. KAZ: Denis Ten, locked
16. KAZ: Abzal Rakimgaliev, is there anyone to challenge him?
17. RUS: Evgeny Plushenko, locked
18. RUS: Sergei Voronov, slight frontrunner over Andrei Lutai
19. BEL: Kevin van der Perrrn, locked
20. SWE: Adrian Schultheiss or Kristoffer Berntsson, if either of them can satisfy the Swedish skating federation
21. ESP: Javier Fernandez, locked
22. SLO: Gregor Urbas, locked
23. UKR: Anton Kovalevski, locked
24. POL: Przemysław Domański, apparently already named
25. SUI: Stephane Lambiel, in theory needs to score more than 192 at Europeans, or possibly just at Swiss Nationals, but really, even in the extremely unlikely event that he doesn't, it doesn't seem likely he won't go
26. AUT: Viktor Pfeifer, locked
27. GER: Stefan Lindemann, may be challenged by Peter Liebers, also may be required to finish at least top 8 in Europeans, and the German federation has enforced its requirements in the past
28. PRK: Song Chol Ri, persumably(how many other skaters are there? Any?)
29. ROU: Zoltan Keleman, locked
30. FIN: Ari-Pekka Nurmenkari, very probable
Alternates:
1. BLR: Alexandr Kazakov
2. EST: Viktor Romanenkov
3. GBR: Matthew Parr, may be challenged by Elliot Hilton
4. CHN: Jialing Wu
1. USA: Evan Lysacek, locked
