The sloppiest victory in the history of figure skating.

ISU communication memo to every other mens' competitor in figure skating - stay home, don't even attend and contest for competitions because you're destined to lose. Just give up, hang up your skates, don't pay your coaches, don't work your *** of day in and day out in a cold rink spending all of your hard earned money on a sport you can't afford just so you can only ever finish 2nd place.

Well at least until Chan retires.

Bloody ******* hell! I am so friggin' mad!

Chan is the most overrated and overscored skater in the history of figure skating. He should be ashamed of himself and the sport should be too.

[SkateSkates]

the scoring was innapropriate

Birthday gift are raining in Ontario...I'm starting heating skate canada...and I'm sorry for this...

[missysays]

What really gets me is if Patrick was any other nationality, the Skate Canada leadership and media would probably be all over the place denouncing the injustice of the situation.

Protocols up http://www.isuresults.com/results/gpcan2010/

[evangeline]

Hmmmm, from a brief perusal of the LP protocols it looks like Patrick was scored quite generously, GOE-wise.

I can't believe he got positive GOEs on those scratchy jumps (3F, 3Lz, etc).

[ImaginaryPogue]

What did the commentators say? Were they dumbfounded to or did they play along??

CBC commentators played along.

This is great!

What a boost for Chan's confidence: if he lands his jumps, he will not be beaten. Good job here.

Or...even if he doesn't.

The good news is Worlds will be in Japan. Chan will be brought down to earth with a giant thud there I predict. And boy will he deserve it.

[burntBREAD]

I'm sorry, but how does Nobunari Oda get less GOE on jumps than Patrick Chan...ever?!

[jan]

Why are you personally atacking the skater?

The good news is Worlds will be in Japan. Chan will be brought down to earth with a giant thud there I predict. And boy will he deserve it.

[oleada]

And chan's fall in the footwork is only worth a -1 GOE from some judges.

What's so friggin special about his scratchy-*** jumps that they don't deserve -GOE? They would if it were any other skater in this competition.

Yes, Elena and Anton didn't deserve their Olympic gold in 2002 due to the smallest of a mistake, so a protest is filed to force a Canadian pair to win a shared gold medal. A home land guy falls 4 times and has many sloppy landings and beats out a Japanese man who only fell once, and all is fine and dandy. All justice is lost. This game is UGGGHHHHHLLLLLLLLYYYYYYYYYYYYY!
