There's no need to wish such "karma" on the skaters ... ...

Not on skaters, on Rusfed. I mean skaters don't necessary need to bomb badly. If skaters do so-so programs and tech panel calls URs and wrong edges it woukdn't be surprising. With the right judging it's not impossible to see Rusfed losing these spots, as they should since they don't care for justice.

The only people to suffer from so called bad karma will be skaters - fewer spots next year, congratulations, even fewer skaters will get through to the Worlds. Which means that next year you’re getting only juniors fighting for those spots. 

The field is quite depleted this year, so I guess getting 13 points for two skaters won’t be that difficult. Depends on a number of factors, of course - but I guess they will scramble through.

I do agree here. But also I wonder if without Tukt (and Med instead of her), Zagitova will feel pressure to "prove herself" and bomb again... Then it will be interesting to see what happens.

Yeah, some guys at a federal TV channel believe she goes through 6 million roubles a month in Toronto at the expense of the tax payer. It translates into just below 100k bucks. LOL. Zhenya somehow manages to spend 3k bucks daily. 

Mind you, these guys multiply 20k Zhenya is supposed to spend daily on a hotel (while she clearly rents a far cheaper apartment) by 30 days a month and get 6 mil...

Those numbers are pure fiction. Toronto is an expensive city, but not that expensive. Zhenya would have to be living like a Kardashian to go through that much money. There's no way.

I don't know if it'll happen. I don't see her gaining the correct precision with the new way of skating in a month.

Tbh stsq is never a strong point of Evgenia but the tosca one is just bad. Lacking of speed and flow are her usual problem but its so heavy and her upper body movement bother me alot.

Now this really bothers me. It seems just... thoughtless.

When the news story breaks on TASS, you owe me for the idea...ahaha... I wish I was joking, but seriously, fan forums must be where they get some of their news 'stories'. They're so far-fetched.

Don't know what happened with my formatting here...but yeah, just read the whole post to see what I'm trying to say.
