Don't overlook Hiwatashi. He placed 4th at US Nationals & 8th at 4 CC's.

Yes, he is a real threat because his SS and performance are as good as his jumps which can’t be said for a lot of other skaters.

My dream podium of Gumennik, Grassl and Shimada is probably unrealistic, so I'll just wish everyone a clean skate without injuries

I'd say it would be hard for any one of Murashov, Danielian, Erokhov to finish top 5 honestly. I hope Artur does well enough to end his season on a good note but I'm not to happy he will compete here
It's gonna be hard for anyone to get into the top five, as we saw on the JGP, where the guy who ultimately won the JGPF didn't originally make the top 6 cut. Field is on its way back up, and we have a lot of guys in it who are technically competitive with each other. Only a couple (I think?) with multiple different quads for the free skate that could bring in beaucoup points but will have to deliver the jumps well under this year's system in order to reap the reward. My guess is that the Canadian wunderkind will do it. After that, goodness only knows. Quite a nice group of young performers: Gummenik, Hiwatashi, Shimada, Pulkinen--who could bring in the balanced scores across both events if they skate well and the big jumpers forfeit their GOE.

i wish him could take some rest and start again next season working on his jumps and selfconfidence
i'm pretty sure gogolev will get the gold here and gumennik, grassl, hiwatashi and shimada will end on or near the podium, in any possible order
(juniors are always unpredictable and starting from this season most of the seniors too), i don't know about pulkinen, he didn't look very strong in the last competitions i saw him.

Yeah, Joseph was fourth last year, and came third in the free skate, so it's not unrealistic for him to medal, though much of this season has been a disappointment. If he can have a free skate like he had at Canadian Nationals, he'd definitely be in the mix.
I forgot that it's already time for JW. 
So excited for men's! Gogolev seems to have settled in nicely after the blip that was his second JGP, so he looks to be a solid favorite for gold- alongside Hiwatashi I may add(like others have mentioned), who actually backed up a solid nationals showing with good skates at 4CC, and has the ability to beat Gogolev unlike the others(let's get real...Pulkinen is not likely to skate clean). Fight for the top finishes will be exciting and competitive in general though. Way more interesting than last season tbh.

I dont know what is going on with Pulkinen. It has been a mess for him this season. But yes, he probably wont be clean for the FS.
Gogolev needs to control his nerves because I think that will be what might prevent him from the gold here.
I would like Hiwatashi to come in a get gold, bit can he be clean and continue the momentum.
Grassl is very interesting, but I think he wont be clean.

Top 2 got their bests at Euro and 4cc where quads in SP are allowed, so probably their Junior results would not be so high.
