I hate that Gold is now "unpredictable" after her jitters at Skate Canada, but these things must be taken into account, regardless. Much of the ranking depends on whether or not Leonova will skate cleanly.

Okay folks housekeeping: Pairs from COC are done. Sorry for being late, I was out of town this weekend.

Anyway, congrats to Li'Kitsu, for having the only perfect score at 881.13. Macassar88 was second with 797.07 and a whole bunch of people are tied for third with 794.90 points.

Onward to COR!

You're not alone, I promise. So much of it hinges on consistency (which Adelina, Alena, and Gracie have all displayed issues with) so until we actually see them skate, (almost) anything goes.

Deep field. The podium should be Chan + Japanese. Wanted to add Brezina Weir and Menshov into the mix. Brezina is still working on the quads. Dunno how the old timers can handle the young'uns.

Ladies:
1. Kiira Korpi
2. Adelina Sotnikova
3. Kanako Murakami
4. Alena Leonova

I really like Kiira's programs. Adelina will mess up a jump or two. Kanako will be hit by the tech panel. Alena, Agnes and Gracie are all ??? at this point. Difficult for me to leave Marchei out of the mix.

Pairs:
1. Volosozhar/Trankov
2. Denney/Coughlin
3. Bazarova/Larionov
4. Lawrence/Swiegers
5. Martiusheva/Rogonov

Seems pretty much set

3. Shibutani
4. Monko/Khaliavin
5. Sinitsina/Zhiganshin

Russian bonus won't be enough to beat the awaken V/M after SC. M/K Coup de Nice confidence booster edge out S/Z.

It's not unrealistic. The Shibs have beaten I/K before. In fact in seniors, the Shibutanis are 3-1 to I/K. Granted I/K beat the Shibs at the last competition (Worlds), but we also learned later that the Shibs (Alex, namely) were dealing with some injuries that kept them from skating at full mast.

I think their slight sophomore slump. from last season really lit a fire under them. Also I/K's FD is a bit....:scratch:

I 100% do not mean to step on anyone's toes but is someone needed to calculate the dance scores from this past weekend at CoC? I have A LOT of time today and tomorrow and could easily do it.

Again, hope I am not stepping on anyone's toes. Just thought I'd offer if help is needed.
