So it looks like the men are:

Takahiko Kozuka, JPN (30 + 481.58)
Daisuke Takahasi, JPN (30 + 461.86)
Patrick Chan, CAN (28)
Tomas Verner, CZE (26 +1st at Skate America)
Nobunari Oda, JPN (26 + 2nd at SC and SA)
Florent Amodio, FRA (24+ 443.15)

Alternates
Jeremy Abbott, USA (24+ 435.40)
Brandon Mroz, USA (24 + 431.11)
Adam Rippon, USA (20)

Sad to see no American in the final, but it was close. Well I hope they do better at Worlds!

ETA: Tomas' name + country id.

As I predicted, mens skating following the ladies footsteps, with the balance shifting to Asia, Japan specifically.
The top medalist at the GPF will earn automatically a trip to worlds from a very crowded field in the hunt. This will be interesting to see, a mini japanese nationals with 3 foreign guest stars

Seeing how he beat the #2 Japanese man with 4 falls, you better be careful about what you wish. ;)

I can find merit in all of these guys in the GPF, and have no particular preference as to winner. My wish is for great clean skating all around, and especially for fair and consistent judging across all competitors. If that happens, I can ask for no more. :)
