Perhaps. Tuktamysheva has 22 points and Lipnitskaia has 24. If Asada and Suzuki finish 1-2 at NHK (in any order), both Russian ladies could make the GPF.
Mathman, I'd be interested in how much money the ISU saved by cutting two singles skaters (four in total) and two dance teams from each GP event. I'd suggest that investing in a solid competition circuit promotes the sport and makes money in the long term.
Lots of whining by the Canadians, methinks.
Suck it up, fans. There's no conspiracy here.
I also have the impression that the ISU has deliberately turned the sport inward in the last six or eight years. The Grand Prix in particular seems more for the skaters than for the fans, audience, or general public.
(I might be wrong about that.)

^ Yes, that it is. I wish figure skating would reach outward a little more, but this argument has come up many times and I always end up on the losing side.
Don't you know that reputation judging of PCS doesn't exist in this world!?Osmond is a kid in her first senior season compared to Wagner who is a veteran.
Wagner is FOUR years older than Osmund, NOT seven. (21-17)Well she should be she's seven years older and still doing the easy jumps in her short program.
