I hope you will have a blast at the Nationals!

It was a good event, IMHO - fantastic line-up of skaters at a golden time for Canada's skaters (Virtue and Moir/Chan/Weaver and Poje, Patrick Chan and Keegen were all there. However, it was not so well attended.
Patrick didn't skate at his best - maybe that was contributory to your bad experience? It was the only time I got to see Patrick skating live, so although he was clearly disappointed, I got to see up-close his amazing skating skills.

No, that wasn't 2019, I was at Skate Canada in 2019 (my first Skate Canada!). It was in Kelowna and some of the stars there were Yuzuru Hanyu and Sasha Trusova...
Perhaps you remember Skate Canada 2017 or 2018?

ok ... i will check for real
I was at SCI 2018 indeed... gosh I am not getting any younger
There were a few highlights but it wasn't the most exciting event. I skipped the gala because I also got sick during that event. So that doesn't help
But when people say GPs are stacked, yes, they are... but they are also relatively early in the season and the performances are not always awesome... Now that I am looking at the scores below... yup.. some of the stars had difficult SPs or LPs... So only in pairs, and that wasn't my fave team, did the winner won both segments of the competition. So it was a meh event in terms of how skaters skated... What I remember best was Medvedeva's come back after a terrible SP. She did much better in the LP. And as a Roman fan... it was definitely a meh event.

I think the GPF was my favorite event. Just a bit longer than a GP (and more chopped up, with more Zamboni breaks), but with most of the top skaters in the world.
I rejected Worlds as just too much.
Skate Canada is probably better in years where it is not post-Olympics. In an Olympic (calendar) year, there are a lot of retirements/tired skaters.

I wonder if he was injured all last season, which is why they lacked sparkle. Wishing him a good recovery. I think Green and Parsons have more to offer.

In terms of my kids, I have two sets.
Camille KOVALEV / Pavel KOVALEV (FRA) in Pairs in France and China.
Emilea ZINGAS / Vadym KOLESNIK (USA) in Ice Dance in Canada and Finland.
Staying with the Ice Dancers, I had been hoping that Sofía VAL / Asaf KAZIMOV (ESP) would get an assignment. But, alas. That said, you never know, they might still.
I would check where they are in the World Standings, but none of the pages on either version of the ISU Results site are loading. Given the time of year, I would normally say that they are probably getting updated. But, I am not so sure that is the case this year, because there are other problems.
You know the way that the new site (results.isu.org) was secure (https://) and the old site (www.isuresults.com) was unsecure (http://). And because of this, I replaced all the links in my Fan Fests so that they would point to the new site, and started using links to the new site in all my reminder posts.
Well, I noticed a week or so ago that the new site isn't secure any more. Which means that all the links in my posts are now coming up with security warnings when you click them!
The upshot is that both versions of the ISU Results site are well and truly up the creek.
As usual, the ISU have completely messed things up.
CaroLiza_fan
Just as a follow up. It appears that the new site (results.isu.org) has closed down, and the old site (www.isuresults.com) is now secure (https://).
Typical ISU! Whilst I applaud them for migrating the ISU Results site to secure protocols, they way they went about it was a total mess! There was no need to create the new site and have the two versions running in parallel. And then switch the protocols around after two seasons, and close the new site. All they needed to do was to change the protocols of the old site.
So, after changing ALL the ISU Results links in ALL my Fan Fests over to the new site, I now have to change them all AGAIN!!!
Thinking of how long it took me to change them all in the first place, I could cry!
Thanks a bunch, ISU!

Chances are there will be four open slots on the Grand Prix due to the penalties given to two Korean senior women.
It is likely that at least one will be at Skate America.
Whom do you suppose USFSA will invite? Will they perhaps do a swap to get a slot for a US pair?

Most likely there will be two open spots at SkAm...
My thought is that Sarina Joos would get one of the spots, since she is nr. 2 on the replacement list. But if i´m not mistaken, they can invite anybody from the top 10 replacement list, so it doesn´t mean she is guaranteed one, but given that there will most likely be 4 open spots in the GP, I think she will get one event eventually.
If i´m not mistaken, Minchae Kim is actually first on the replacement list now (Aoki already got a spot at SkAm), due to her bronze at Nebelhorn Trophy last season, so it would be natural that she would get one of the spots to fill in with Korean skater, but I´m not sure if she is really competing anymore. Her last competition was a domestic competition in November where she scored 44 points in the SP and didn´t reach the final....
Looking at the replacement list top 10, Joos and Pezzetta could end up with a spot each if Minchae declines the spot.
If they really don´t care about who is first on the list, Mikutina and Ruiter might get the spots due to popularity. Or they might pick for example Joos and Mikutina (one high on the last and one of popularity). Last season Meite was nr. 10 on the replacement list and Skate Canada gave the spot to her.
1-10
Aoki (SkAm)
M Kim
S Joos
Pezzetta
Pelkonen (Finlandia)
Lin-Gracey
Mikutina
Seniuk
Andrews
Ruiter (SCI)
I´m wondering when they will update the lists. It´s pretty much confirmed the G/S will do JGP, their coach said that in a interview and confirmed they will do some senior Challengers, but JGP. I also have a feeling there will be more WD.

Mikutina trains in US, they could choose her. And do we know if Joos or Pezzetta are doing JGP?

Could usfsa invite 2 other Korean women skaters farther down on the replacement list?
My understanding is that replacements for the main spots need to come from the top ten on the replacement list. I think they would need to go a long way down the list to get another senior Korean skater. Yelim Kim, Chaeyeon Kim and Seoyeong Wi already have two spots at other GP events. Minchae Kim is a fair way down the world rankings and hasn't competed since last Autumn. They could use the TBD host spot for a lower ranked Korean skater, but that would not go down well because the host spots are usually used for skaters from the host country and there are lots of US skaters with the minimum score.

Not sure if it has been reported here yet, but Grimm/Savitskiy have been replaced by Harris/Chan at SCI.

Between the women problem, no ability to purchase ticket online, crappy flights, WestJet's surprise strike that throws airline industry in Canada into another spiral and my general apathy toward figure skating right now, I will pass on SkAm. I'll see how it goes next year. This season shapes up to be a downer for me.

Cannot beat last season where you had home nationals and worlds. Did you do a GP too ?
Did you consider Skate Canada? It's far but the line-up is sweet !
She switched to pairs, she officially is in a partnership with Balazs Nagy.
I love seeing her this high on the list
