I like how Orser's happy trying to stuff all those kids behind the door, while Eteri's with her usual expression.

And since these are "houses" can we give them Hogwarts houses too? LOL

I would say Orser is Hufflepuff, Tutberidze is Slytherin (cunningly working the system for points), Arutyunyan is Gryffindor (Nathan boldly going for all those quads). Not sure who ravenclaw would be. Maybe Hamada, but I don’t want to feed into the Asians = intelligence stereotype. They are my favorite team and ravenclaw is my favorite house though....

You read my mind... I was about to suggest we create a thread to sort our favorite skaters! Should we do it?

We can sort them based on how many people assign the same skater to a certain house!

Hufflepuff: Orser. The ice will be full of goofing buddies.
Ravenclaw: Tutberidze. She knows how to grab every point and how to make something bad look like something good.
Gryffindor: Raf. Quad bae.
Slytherin: Buyanova. In politics she believe.

Ic3Rabbit - Wang/Liu and Chen/ Sun are not a rumor, though. They are already there and training - https://m.weibo.cn/u/6434400902?jumpfrom=weibocom. Perhaps it's just for the summer, but it was said that it's longterm.

As for Komatsubara/Koleto, according to Koleto's tweet, where he is expressing support to Medvedeva "as somebody who has trained in two (soon to be three) countries away from home", they might be moving to another country and training base (US?, Zueva?, Shpilband and Camerlengo?) - https://twitter.com/Timkoleto/status/1000529552471453696?s=19.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe this was in reference to the couple spending some time in Japan in the upcoming season in pursuit of citizenship? (That would make it Italy, Canada, Japan.)
Article from last year roughly states something about training in Okayama, Japan.
