I am really not so sure. At the moment there is no another European team on Papadakis/Cizeron's level. It remains to be seen if any of the Russians will rise to that level. On the other hand, North America, especially USA, has many really promising juniors who will go into seniors soon. Of course, just out of junior teams have not had that much success in seniors recently with one major exception (P/C, of course, but even for them it was in their second senior season), but someone has to rise in the next several years from such a deep pool of talent. Yes, there are some promising Russian junior teams too, even though those are not the current leaders, but the younger teams. In any case, I think it is too early to predict the end of North American dominance.We are about to see the end of an era of North American Dominance in Ice Dance.
