Hmmm. Flawed skate by Kozuka, will they put it above the home cooking?

I love Kozuka, love this music, but so much missed opportunity with the choreography and how this program is laid out.
 
Kozuka's quad is the lowest among all tonight, no wonder he could not land it perfectly. .
 
I'm impressed by Menchov's will and power and I'm sad for Oda. Gachinski was overscored. Now I have seen Kozuka's short program for the first time and I'm impressed. Finally someone who tried to interpret music so far, although it was not perfect.
 
Kozuka's PCS only 1.5 above Gachinski, 4 points above Menshov and 5 above Bush? Ooh....I don't think so. I'd say there's some Russian Federation power weighing in on this judging.
