I wish him the best and that he skates for pure joy. Sadly he doesn't have the funding to really compete because it might be too late now but he has the goods to be Canada's no. 3 - if he had continued skating form last year's nationals he really had a good shot of at least top 5. If he got his speed up, competitive spins and all the jumps even with an iffy axel he might have had enough to get no. 3 in Canada.
I think he actually could have a shot at the 3rd spot on Canada's Olympic team though. Everyone outside the top 2 in Canada is so weak now it is totally wide open.
I think he's a great example of skating for himself. No expectations, just skating for the fans and the love of his sport. He's really matured, and I don't think he has anything to prove, and I hope people will respect his competing instead of automatically dismissing him or poking fun (although "Sandhu to hit the ice again" is a bit of an unfortunate choice of headline).
I think Russians always appreciated his quality of skating, and there was a time that the Mishin camp actually considering him the biggest threat to Plushenko.
Like Weir, he would also be an openly gay skater competing in Sochi if he made it (although unlike Weir, he probably stands a better chance of competing there, even if it's not the best chance... and when he gets there I don't think he'd be as vocal as Weir would be).
(although "Sandhu to hit the ice again" is a bit of an unfortunate choice of headline).
It's a really outside shot, particularly with his lack of a 3A (though obviously he could get it back). Even his PCS isn't up to par with the other skaters.
I also wouldn't say Rogozine is "so weak" considering he got 13th in his first Worlds (essentially tied Amodio and Liebers for 11th, and placed 9th in the FS), beat GP medallists like Song and Miner, and almost cleared 150 points in his FS. I think last season was about Sandhu getting back out there, and this will be his attempt at a Sasha-esque comeback.
