Looks like Sawyer missed two jumps at the end? Total lost opportunity to move up a bit and look like he will go down in the standings. :(

His Alice FS is the best though! Good that is strength is the FS. I sincerely hope he saves his best for Worlds. :)

I have a feeling that Reynolds will indeed have the skate of his life tonight and finish the highest of the Canadian men. Maybe a medal if he is lucky.

I would be so thrilled if that would happen. I think it would make his season worthwhile and give confidence going into next season. Fingers crossed.

I don't understand how could Shawn get only 67 for PCS for doing this what is called figure skating. He skated to the music wonderfully and portrayed the character. And Joubert at Euros got 73...

I agree that is ludicrous, I've never understood how Joubert has been able to score such high PCS throughout his career.

Love love love Kozuka and this program. Wish he had been perfect but alas... Think he will need mistakes from the men currently ahead of him to get up on the podium.

Good job by Takahiko, just fall on opening quad? then stumble on 3R later on in the program, but excellent spins, fw, et al. :)

He's forever underscored in PCS. Needs higher TES to raise his PCS.

I'm surprised Koz didn't score a little higher either.

Great triple axels from Kozuka and I think he'll get credit for the quad. Just a fall and some mishaps at the end, but a good performance looking toward Worlds.

Well given Shawn's inconsistancy in the past, I think he's getting reputation underscoring. I think now that he put down a good program tonight, maybe we'll see some improvement at Worlds.

Shawn is very artistic but if you compare his power and run of the blade to some of the very top skaters he falls a little short.

This is sad to watch. Really to bad that Kevin could never put it together this season, not really sure what lays in store for him in the future.
