I wish Adelina would find another version of her music. The vocals assault the ears and distract imo.
The Coaching Council of the Russian Figure Skating Federation made a recommendation to send Lisa, Adelina and Nicole to the Euros. Final decision to be made tomorrow. They also recommended to send Plushchenko, Voronov and Kovtun (#5), choosing Kovtun over Menshov, who took the bronze. Notably, Mishin, Kudriavtsev and Nikolai Morozov, all members of the Council, voted against sending Kovtun. Sorry, can't post the external link because of the forum rules.

Amazing really that with all the depth in Russian Ladies that they don't have a solid number 3 to go to Euro's or Worlds.
I still think they will send Leonova to Worlds. They are just waiting for Nicole to bomb at Euros so they can justify it more easily.
temp, Welcome to Golden Skate! Thank you for your post!
Kovtun did a great job on the JGP and at the JGPF-this year, but that does not translate to a great job at Senior competitions, always.
I wish they sent Menshov, whom I really liked at Skate America
