It looks to me as though P&I need to work really hard to regain their form, PLUS catch up on the improvements they haven't been able to make in the past two seasons. I expect them to build speed and power at the DSC, and I do not want to see them sent to international competitions when they are not ready to compete. That strategy was a mystery to me last year, and I can't imagine what they gained from it. I had thought they might be third in Canada last year, and now they must really fight to save their career, even if the problems at Canadians don't persist.
Let's hope R&H continue to work hard and improve, and may the skating gods allow them two good programs and decent costumes.
And while we're about it, let's not forget O&W, another new team, but one that has contrived to make great improvements in the past two years. I fully expect that trend to continue. Some folks dismiss Wing and Lowe as unable to teach the basics, but I am not among them. The way O&W are handled this year will be a test of their coaching team's ability to handle a senior team.
I don't advocate dumping any team that competed at Nationals this year.
