Not surprised but I have to say Buntin was the strength of Duhamel and Buntin. I dreamed that Buntin would partner with Langlois. I think they would have made an awsome pair.
I always felt that Craig was the most masculine of Pair Skaters. He knew how to "sell" the Lady without taking anything away from himself. So many other Pairs seem to just skate by the rules and without any connection except in poses. It's more difficult for partners to connect in Pairs than in Ice Dance. JMO>
Sad that Craig didn't get to cap off his solid career at the Olympics in his hometown.. but it just wasn't to be (as an aside, how unfortunalte that of the hometown Canadian team contenders got to enjoy that opportunity - Buntin, Reynolds, Ten, *cough*Leung*cough*)
I'm glad that Meagan is continuing though. She really went whole hearted into the partnership with Craig, driving toward their goal this season. it will be nice to see that development continue.
