As with the ladies, let's start theorizing early! (Let's assume these people will be sent to the Olympics by their Feds because most of them will be)
Yuzuru Hanyu: Current World champion and reigning OGM. Two clean programs and he's unbeatable.
Javier Fernandez: Two-time World champion. Always a threat.
Patrick Chan: Three-time World champion and Mr. PCS. Can he end the Canadian curse for men?
Shoma Uno: Current World's silver medallist, Mr. Knees. A blend of organic feel for the music, speed across the ice and fair technical talent.
Nathan Chen: Mr. Quad Jump. He's scary consistent with his quads, and has the ability to become truly artistic. Will he pull an upset victory?
The Others: Boyang Jin, Jason Brown, Mikhail Kolyada, Maxim Kovtun, Denis Ten
