Just for starters...
I was wondering the same thing.Was Patrick supposed to get a music deduction? He finished after the music ended.
I think there is something wrong with the site as your post says the wrong placements but when I quote what you said it is correct. I also tried posting ealier and couldn't get anything to open. Is there a weird Skating internet slow done, first skate canada and now golden skate!
So weird as soon as my post went up your post corrected, I just took it down since you were of course correct. Even deleting took some effort. I hope the get it fixed for the Olympics too!!I think my tiny list here is correct, but who knows, this site has been wonky all night. I'm scared for it during the Olympics Lol.

I've seen the last group in men. They all made mistakes. I think Chan is again over scored. His score is too big if compared to all the other skaters. Kevin had problems with the jumps but his program looked better. P. Chan doubled the Axel and the Lutz, and ended the program a few good seconds after the music. The scoring is a disgrace for figure skating.
I was a little sad that the men had so many mistakes but as Elizabeth Manley said, we want them to make mistakes so they skate perfect at the Olympics. She said she had a terrible nationals before Calgary and look what she did.
I was really impresses with Liam, too bad he fell on the axle, if his long is as good as his short I think he will end up third.

Yes, all men made mistakes! Chan should be first, but not with such a difference. He is to many points ahead with such a flawed program. He may fell twice in his LP and still win. That's not good.Yes, I think Chan was overscored too, doing 2 doubles. But I don't think Reynolds should be in front. Or Firus. Kevin had too many mistakes too and is all over the place with his body (sorry, his arms were driving me mad).
This is just a complete guess, but maybe the music deduction is only if the music itself goes beyond the time limit, and not if the skater ends a bit afterwards?
I really enjoyed Kevin's ACDC program (although the skate itself left something to be desired)!

I believe the time deduction only applies if the skate stops more than 5 seconds past the time limit (or before). I haven't seen the skate, but perhaps Patrick was under this time?
