Not knowing who he was shouldn't have an influence on your decision to stab someone either way, let alone multiple times :gaah:

My sentiments also...like what the heck? Why not just run the heck away if someone catches you robbing them? Why get violent? Makes me so mad.

Bringing this back... Denis had some really great ideas and visions, if only they could be implemented by ISU :sadPooh:

Implementing this idea would make a fantastic memorial for him.

Thank you, Denis. Your time with us may have been an all-too-short one but the effect you had while you were around is an immeasurably profound one. The gaping hole in your shape that is your absence tells me how much your presence meant, even if I hadn't realized it before. Rest assured that the legacy you have left behind will live on in your stead. And may your loved ones be able to move on with pride in their hearts, and be well taken care of.

 

Skate happily among angels, Hero of Kazahkstan, and Champion of Life.

How I wish that all of this is just a bad dream. That this thread does not exist. That he's gonna skate at Cup of Russia next season...

I'm planning  to go to CoP .  The  main  reason is  Yuzu   , but  I  was so surprised and excited  to  see that Denis was  going  to be  there as well. I thought  he  was done  with  competitive  skating  so it  was a  pleasant  surprise  . 

Now  every time I see ''1993-2018'' it's like getting a punch in the throat.  :(
