[Grin]

It's now official. There are rumors she will go to CSKA.
Another rumor she is going to BOrser

What?

 

[StephenGfan]

Thank god. No one deserves to train under that abusive coach. Good for Evgenia to find that courage.

 

[Grin]

I think it’s fake news.

Confirmed by MATCH TV twice. Also she has unfollowed Tutberidze team in VK.

WHAT

WHAT

WHAT

I was sure we would see Alina leave Eteri before we'd see Evgenia leave Eteri. Evgenia has always been the favorite, apparently, and she's leaving????

I don't think anything about her skating would improve by moving to CSKA. She'd be top dog there, but I think we'd be likely to see her jumps and skating decline. Whereas I think Brian and Tracey could help her become a hands-down, inarguable GOAT.

(ETA: I wouldn't be surprised if she's having a Michelle Kwan leaving Frank Carroll moment. She's ready to be more independent and find out what kind of skater she is without the "molding" of the coach she's trained under for so many years. I'm sure she wants to work with different choreographers and train with great skaters who aren't threatening to replace her.)

Woah, what?

If true didn’t see that coming. Wow!

I'd be shocked if she goes to a Canadian!

I saw it coming taking into consideration Zhenya's recent activity on social media and all insiders' rumours but I'm still shocked :shocked:

 

[mau]

If this is true, I don’t think she’s going to BOrser. The RusFed pay for her training expenses in Sambo, will they do the same thing if she goes abroad?

 

[charlotte14]

I was right...

I was hoping it's only another rumor too

With the $$ she’s made from winning I don’t think she needs them too.

With that in mind, I hope RusFed doesn’t turn against her if she leaves.

I'm not sure - is Evgenia moving to Orser just a rumor?

Would he take on two new ladies skaters?

 

[Sorrento]

Dear God, please let her train with Brian Orser and not in CSKA!
BTW she can afford paying a foreign coach from her prize money if Federation will not show much support, she may also have a sponsor for that matter.

 

[Szeptuszka]

Woah! I wish Zhenya the best, I hope she finds a supportive new coaching team. :agree:

I don't want to get my hopes up, but considering how boddy-buddy Evgenia and Wakaba are on the social media, it would be awesome if they both went to Orser and became the next generation Yuzuru-Javi Probably not very likely, as Wakaba has still 1 year of high school to go, but let me have my dream for a couple of days...

Grin, Gods have mercy, what is that on your avatar? Is that Kim Jong Un photoshopped with a fancy makeup? :eeking:

 

[Danny T]

Holy cow

Post-Olympics shenanigans have truly begun. May the ever be in our favour

Second one being... Wakaba Higuchi? Why not? They are good friends, great competition in the club which is quite familiar for Evghenia from her Eteri experience.
