So happy for Sota. Love the podium. Frankly, Sota needs to win Junior Worlds...

Even if you had to participate in medal ceremony? Come on.

Wait, you're probably talking about Borisova's stream.

I was talking about the Sovetova stream. I don't think that person is a skater.

Anyway, I guess I was wrong. Lets be happy with what we got.

Congrats to Olympic medal winners Sota, Deniss and Dmitri Hope to see you all in Peyongchang!

Well, they aren't professional, don't owe anyone anything and it's not like anyone else there stepped up to stream.

Sure, they can send whatever they like, though sadly the periscoping I’ve seen so far has been mostly about see ME Periscope is still a pretty new toy. Can’t wait for serious amateurs to use it

Great silver for Deniss: two clean 3A, he needs to work on the concentration though.

Can't wait to see him at Senior Worlds, and the next season with the quad lutz.

So happy for Sota. Love the podium. Frankly, Sota needs to win Junior Worlds...

With Nathan out he's clearly the frontrunner and most likely to win. But he is also a hot and cold skater, but then again, so are the other contenders (Aliev, Samohin, Deniss, etc.)

I will say that I wouldn't mind Deniss winning Junior Worlds (if he's even competing there...I know he's going to Worlds but not sure about both), when he skates well the judges really reward him, as evidenced by his outpacing the other medalists by around 4 points in PCS in the FS here. He really has a lot of performance quality and charisma for a 16 year old.

& Deniss! Desrved PCS! He's a star!
