The only way she could NOT win and still get in is if she gets second, scores a high enough total to beat Turzynbaeva's, AND none of Sotskova/Chen/Rajicova win.

Poor Lindfors had a rough skate.
Hope she will skate like this in the free skate and she may even have chance to win since Karen is usually making mistakes. Good luck:yay:

This is an interesting mix of "A Thousand Years"
And I don't mind the dark tights, but it looks weird with the amount of mesh on the bodice of her outfit.

Or Chen might turn in a better skate!
I would like to see these two both get in. Karen's is one of two hopes for a USA team to get into JGPF! (Liu/Johnson look good to get in pairs, but who knows).
Both will get in - don't worry. Liu/Johnson had two falls yet they still were kept in the top 3. And Karen will win this event no problem - her GEO and PCS will keep her in 1st. And I am not so sure Parsons/Parsons will not get the win here too! A JGP Final without any USA teams would not be a good thing. And since this is the last event, things can fall into place nicely.
If Karen turns in the same poor skate she did in CZE, she won't stay in first. I wonder if perhaps it might be smarter to not push the tech content and go for a clean skate.
I do think Liu/Johnson look good to get in, though I'd like them to perhaps sneak into second.

I can see Chen and Sotskova both maintaining their places and qualifying, but I don't think Parsons/Parsons will win Dance, especially after Yanovskaya/Mozgov's massive FD score from their first event. I think they're stuck relying on Morozova/Zhirnov bombing.
And bomb big time they will have to do -- like somehow end up in 5th or lower.

Exactly that. If Y/M win, M/Z can still qualify just by placing 4th.
Wow what is up with the young Can Jr Ladies this season. It seems they get worse with their 2nd time out rather than improve! And not just worse but their scores drop drastically! I am sure the powers that be has their reasons for sending some of the younger girls who did not even place well at nationals but I can't see what it could be after the results we have seen this season.

I imagine Canada probably thought they'd make the best use of a rare 2-per-event year thanks to Alaine Chartrand's 5th at 2014 Junior Worlds. It's something they probably don't expect to happen again.
I can see sending one unknown but send one of the seasoned ones as well. That way the 'new' one has less pressure. It worked the last couple of years when Alaine and Gabby were still doing JRs. The second one at the events ended up doing much better then they have this year. And in fact Dunley even beat Alaine in her JGP event last year.

Because she's from Slovakya. I was impressed by her, too.

I wonder... She was born in USA, why chose to represent Slovakya: http://www.isuresults.com/bios/isufs00013894.htm

Who would you consider seasoned enough to send, with Chartrand and Daleman doing SGP? (I honestly don't know much about the Canadian juniors.)
And Re: Rajicova - Her parents moved to the US from Slovakia, and when she competed on the US circuit, she made it to Championships but never placed very high. Competing for Slovakia seems like a choice to get her international experience.
