"I'm kind of blown away by this thread, to be honest. Are people seriously saying Virtue/Moir are mediocre skaters with mediocre skating skills and minimal artistry? Like...really? I rooted for Davis/White in 2014 (you know, when D/W were the team with zero skill and V/M were the legendary artistes) and ubered the Shibs here, so I don't have a horse in this race. I feel like it's been obvious for years that both Virtue/Moir and Papadakis/Cizeron are once-in-a-generation skaters, performers, and artists, and one team just edged out the other one here. Reading this thread is proof that not only is beauty in the eye of the beholder, but that people will tear down another team to boost their favorites."
