I feel like we've discussed Chan to death.
Here's a thought on Verner. What happens if say at the GPF, he skates well but doesn't do the quad and earns a pretty good placement, say 3rd - will he leave out the quad for the rest of the season? If he can continue to skate clean he probably doesn't need it for Europeans to win a medal (maybe even gold), and then if he doesn't do it there idk if he would try it for the first time at Worlds. I think he said he was going to try the quad at the GPF, and I hope he does, but I can't help but wonder if he doesn't do it their and manages to do pretty well for himself, if he will change his current gameplan.
And no this does not mean he is turning into Lysacek I'm just speculating. Plus if he manages to get a big PCS boost ala Lysacek he might feel he doesn't need the quad...
