My prediction is St/Kl go clean tomorrow after a rough short. S/H are clean as well and win the event while St/Kl and Sc/Kh are fighting for silver and bronze and it is, apparently, very close since St/Kl giht back in the free

and my prediction went to...
regardless - congrats to Alexa and Chris - bit overscored for my view but surely should lead, Sui/Han got best SP of the season hands down - the level of transitions is extreme, big shame about this spin, but while it works it's magical, hope they'll get all together tomorrow, huge shocker about Ksenia and Fedor...won't be surprised if they'll split after this or next GP

I think the program would be fine if they did the elements. Some programs you can kind of forget an error, but with this kind of spell like music, it really needs to be clean... and with their mistakes, I"m sure the energy, and thereby the performance level, went down. And with Ksenia, you can really tell when she doesn't care for her performance. At the end her wave of disappointment really came through. Not a good lasting impression.

Don't they care how many prediction game entries they are potentially ruining?! ;-)
I agree. I see S/H winning the whole thing. If it weren't for that spin they would probably be in first.

I would not have given them the highest PCS tonight, at all.
I'm not a big fan of Stolbova/Klimov but I feel for them. Fedor has been so off in the throws, like someone said it looked like throwing a sack of potatoes and I thought she was going to make the famous death stare but fortunately not so much. 5th place is fair but shocking, hope they find their rhythm soon! Also her dress doesn't match his costume at all, seems two different programs.
About Scimeca/Knierim I liked the program but her expressions were a big too agressive and his too bland in comparison for Metallica. But yay for a 1st place and consistent program, hope they can keep performing under pressure.
I love S/H, they're my favorite pair but the pink dress is not matching the music. Overall great elements and hope they change the spin, the transition seems so hard and it's just room for mistakes.
Overall nice competition, hope the level keeps high tomorrow!

Sorry, judges but PCS was way too high for Stolbova/Klimov. That program was a mess... unison off, sloppy twist, fall on the throw, she stumbled in the footwork....
Surprised but happy to see Scimeca/Knierim leading. But an even bigger surprise, the first group totally outperformed the second group.

It is a pity for S/H. I think they will gain the win tomorrow. Respect for the Americans
besides the fall St/Kl´s program ist superior. I love it. They are the kings of flow and expression. But the elements do not improve, although they canceled worlds last year to improve exactly this!

LOL, who are they? So much stupid speculations posted in forums. Never trust them
My hopes are still for Sui/Han getting to the top. Loved them from first I saw them. They are soooo good and fun to watch!

They would definitely be in first if not for that spin (especially with the Americans having the SBS hand down error).

S/H lost about 5 points with that spin... they could've scored 73+ had they went clean.

As expected, S/H got no credit for the spin.
I will say, the standings are actually quite fair, even if some of the GOE/PCS is a bit outrageous. I mean, judges gave Stolbova/Klimov +1s on their twist and +2/+3 on their step sequence.. although some saw the stumbles and gave it -GOE.

Well if Stolbova did not fall they would have been 1st too. I don't see S/H having anymore scouring potential than anyone else here. They never brought it when it counted so far. The whole top 5 is so unpredictable. And since when Scimeca started getting this PCS and all level 4s?
