2016-2017 State of Canadian Figure Skating

[4everchan]

let's give some slack to gabby... popping a jump which cost her a championship is frustrating... she knows she had it... i am sure she is pretty fine and proud of herself right now... as we are. She is a teenager, and all her moves are analyzed and commented upon. She has been around on the circuit for a few years but never was in contention like she is now... She has learned how to lose... let her learn how to win as well.

BRAVO GABBY!!!!

I'd be curious to know how much more competition experience Kaetlyn has overall than Gabby. It might not as much as one would expect because of Kaetlyn's injuries over the years.


That would be Pascal Denis.

Good catch! I shouldn't post early in the morning.

I think Kaetlyn has been through some difficult things which may have taught her to keep positive no matter what. That's what I meant to say. Though I guess having been to GPF also helps.

Anyways, I hope both ladies are in fine fighting form in a month's time. It would be great if we could get a 3rd spot and get Alaine to the Olympics.

I have to say I was not impressed with gabby attitude in the kiss and cry and on the podium. She looked furious. I saw a few tweets saying at least 2/3 of the podium is happy to be here. Does not look good on Canada. Ok she lost the gold but she still got silver !!

She is a competitor; she was disappointed. One always want to do her best. She wasn't taking off her medal; she looked mad at herself not about the judging or the others.

I think Gabby's diva look to her confuses people. You have to remember she isn't very seasoned in that situation and she probably wont be looking all smiley every moment the camera is on her. I can assure you she wasn't mad on that podium. She's just a very determined girl and so far her determination and will to get better is really working for her.

By the way, have the Russians released their World entries yet? I can't really do a post until I know who's competing.

I have not done this Mr. Rice, but I had to comment as I too enjoy Jan and Rick. They are so funny together. Love 'em.

we are fair and square, strong and bold.

But, let's make sure we don't get ourselves out of the game... you already gave us a big scare my dear!
