I have a feeling he is going through a hard time right now; the let down of the olympics, literally losing the gold and being so close and arguably, I know many disagree, not getting credit for his skating skills comparatively to others. He also may be thinking of his future and making a living skating is not easy. I do hope he returns. Many including myself think his downfall was going with Johnson - I am not sure why he woud do such a thing. Young and stupid? Whatever the reason he needed a technical coach. I think that is what really cost him the gold. Someone who knew how to be competitive and work on the jumps and conditioning especially the axel (that means NOT Joanne Macleod obviously). His stubbornness was costly I think. Johnson isn't even good or expeienced at doing competitive eedge things.
