with the spots determined who are likely to be on the Olympics Team Next Season
USA:
Ladies - with 3 spots back , Gracie like I said is the real hope for a medal contender, Gracie will be like Sarah Hughes by Olympics
Wagner could be on the team but I think she passed her peak
Gao, Miller, Czisny and Nagasu should vie for the last spot and stop promoting Zawadzki she not a contender at all
Dance - D/W, C/B , last three should be between H/D, A/E or Shibs, I would go with H/D, Sibs aren't a hot cake anymore and are being dropped
Men - this one is tricky, so many US men contenders but not many are stable enough Aaron, Dornbush, Farris and Brown . I think Abbott is all drained up might retire next Season ?
Pairs - D/C the and/or the Denney sister or one of S/K or C/S
Russia:
Ladies - 2 spots, Leonova - She has 100% ZERO Chance, Tuk and Adelina probably because they have Worlds experience or if one miss out
either of Pogorilaya or Julia , I still hope Julia will be on the team, she did not peak last season because of injury, she can still pull a Lipinski.
the rest are 2018 skaters
Dance - B/S and I/K, R/T should not be on the team they are veterans but R/T still keep losing so many levels. S/B has a chance to get the last spot
also promoting 2018 skaters what better way to promote the son of an Olympic Champion ?
Pairs - V/T barring major disasters, B/L if she stays healthy should be there, K/S maybe - If not there is always lucky replacement No.1 S/K
also here will be A/M waiting
Men - only one man deserves and can contend for a medal and that is Plushenko
Japan:
Ladies - Mao, Akiko, Murakami, If Ando returns then one could be dropped maybe Akiko
Men - this one is tricky but two should go to Hanyu and Takahashi, rest are intercahngeable
Dance - Reeds
Pairs - ? Narumi and her new partner I guess
Canada:
Ladies - Osmond and maybe Daleman ? Lacoste I don't see her being selected
Men - Chan is a gold lock anyways, Reynolds and Rogozine
Pairs - D/R, MT/M and a new pairs maybe Takahashi/Purich ?
Ice Dance - V/M, W/P , Giles/Poirer are overhyped but still nothing of a great progress but Canada doesn't ahve another choice maybe Paul/Islam can sub them
