Averbukh made a short comment about Zhenya in a podcast.:think:
“I made her a short program. I really hope that it helps Zhenya to just have great fun on the ice. She’s a great champion. I’m interested in working with athletes and I hope that the programs I put on help them,” said Averbukh.

Do you think coming in as the underdog this season will do her some good? She should have very little to no pressure from the fed/her team/herself/media. She can’t lose Russia any spots because the field is oversaturated by Russians. The four who everyone has their eyes on have immense pressure on them. It happened at worlds, the pressure was off and she delivered. When the pressure came off at Russian nationals for the fs she delivered. Couple that with her having had more time to grow into her new environment and solidify her new technique. Could we optimistically say this might be her strongest season yet?

Also look at this amazing edit! I don’t think the scoring system gives enough credit to the sal-loop, it’s an incredibly difficult combo!
Tbh I don’t think it matters if she is an underdog or not, Evgenia handles pressure well either way. But I think this season will be less mentally exhausting for her.
Alina and Sasha are doing Japan Open so I don’t think Evgenia is going. I don’t think she will do the Shanghai Open either. It seems likely that she will do ACI but I wonder if they will skip the pre-Grand Prix challengers this season. This may be a better strategy, last season it made sense to get some competition experience with a new coach and new style and test the waters but it’s not really necessary.
I think challengers are important for World standing points. So I do hope she does one.
I think she knows what is right for her and will be ready. But nevertheless I'm very nervous about the next season.
I also think they need to do a challenger before the GP. I'm pretty sure there will be new combos/jump layouts (maybe a 4S if Zhenya is able to do it), so gotta try these things out before the harder competitions start
