I think we all wish for Zhenya to get gold, but we also are realistic. As much as I'd love her to win, I just wish for her to do what it takes to make the final. And if that means a silver I'll take it.

Really? What made you change your mind? Just being curious.
It's just that before it's like given that Zhenya will be at GPF but after Zagitova came it seems to me that she was push on the side for a "newer star" (not for me though). TBH Zagitova's skating feels no emotions at all.

Hm, this leaves me in a bit of a difficult position because while Zhenya will always be the one skater to hold my heart, I also really like Alina. I know and agree that it seems like Zhenya is more of a natural performer while Alina is the more natural jumper. However, I do think both have made tremendous improvements in both areas. Alina is already emoting more in her programs than last season. She still has a long way to go but to me it‘s visible. And I think we all know how hard Zhenya works on her jumps.
So, this isn‘t actually related to Zhenya but as someone who likes and respects Alina a lot, I had to say this. This doesn‘t mean that you‘re not entitled to have your own opinion, not at all! It‘s totally okay not to like a skater or not feel any emotions while they skate. Don‘t worry, I have that with some too.
It‘s great to see you cheer on Zhenya
though, and we would be happy to have you in her fanfest to talk about her. Especially next week we‘ll need all the support we can get as for it will be be a both exciting and important competition.

Anna Watson has translated a short interview Brian gave about Zhenya:

Poor Brian having to give all the same answers all the time. Btw he said in another interview that Gabby won 4CC exactly a year and a half after they started working together (with Lee). He only realized it because Gabby’s dad called him to tell him he was right lol

Thanks for sharing!!!
"She will be a superstar." - to me she already is
To me too. Zhenya just has the certain it factor. :luv17:
It will be so interesting and exciting to see her this week. Even though I have to admit I‘m pretty nervous already.

Same. I am so happy to see her next week but I am also super anxious, but I also trust in Evgnenia to give her everything next week. We could see after her SP at SC that she is angry and full if determination. I am excited to see the new Zhenya Brian and Tracey always rave about when they talk about how she is at TCC.

Yay, it's Sunday! I finally have free time to comment.
every time there is less to see Zhenya compete., this month it felt very long.
Brian's words showed a lot of security , I'm glad to know that Zhenya takes advantage of every moment of training and that she's ready. I'm dying to know the layout.
Looking forward.

Huh? Did I have a delusional dream when I imagined someone wrote in here Zhenya will do a 2A-3Lo combo and no two lutzes in the FS? That TSL said this?
I wanted to respond later and suddenly the message was gone. Help people, am I going crazy and only imagined this?

No, you did not imagine it. I had second thoughts about whether I should have posted it, as maybe it will spoil the fun for some people. But too late that, I guess. Yes, in the new TLS video, it was mentioned that Evgenia will do a 2A-3Loop combo and get rid of the second 3L. Someone also mentioned it on medvedevanation (also citing TLS).

Sorry... Shouldn’t I have commented on it? I was just so confused for a moment.
Well, I guess we have to take everything TSL says with a grain of salt anyway. But honestly, it made me even more excited AND anxious at the same time for IdF... If that‘s even possible. So, I‘d say it‘s a good thing. Gives people something to occupy them with while having to wait to see Zhenya again this weekend. But if you want we can delete our comments and make everyone forget we ever posted them.

No, no. I got too excited, had second thoughts, then hesitated (too late). Someone also mentioned it on Medvedevanation, so it's ok to keep here, I think.

It‘s definitely something interesting. I didn‘t expect changes in her layout so soon. We have to wait to see whether it‘s true of course but if it is... wow, Zhenya never ceases to surprise us, right?
Something else I found:

Zhenya was the inspiration for an animated movie and they apparently even showed it at the Youth Olympics. That‘s really cool!

I think in Canada it's still November 18th. I don't know if tomorrow I have time to stop by here so I'll leave my regards:
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BEAUTIFUL EVGENIA!
It's amazing how fast time passes, that 14-15-year-old girl I saw on TV today turns 19. Thank you for giving me so many emotions, I cried and laughed with happiness with each victory, I will never forget those performances that remain today and will remain among my favorites.
You are a great human being and a great athlete. I hope you spend this day surrounded by a lot of love.
Always supporting you!:luv17:
