Arutunian, seems like an Armenian to me.
Sasha Abt, like Michelle is a lyrical skater. Abt was incredibly good in that Euros where he was denied gold because of Alexi's dominance at the time. (This is not a bash of Yags. I like him.)
Sasha Cohen is a bravura skater, and the music she is presently skating to suits her to a T! Michelle and Sasha are like oranges and grapefruit. Neither is better at presentation. It's just for you to pick your choice (as will as the judges).
If Arutunian can deliver the 3x3s with the lyrical flow he did for Abt, then MK is in good hands. A lyrical skater does not sell the 3x3s to the judge; they must be integrated into the flow of the routine.
Keeping Scott is important too, he made MK's jumps solid and the spins improved tremendously.
I'm finally beginning to like her spunk and I strongly suspect that 2006 is on the agenda. GO FOR IT KWAN.
