Here are my predictons:

MEN
1. Evgeni Plushenko (of course)
2. Brian Joubert
3. Emanuel Sandhu (he'll have a bad short but fight back in the long)
4. Jeff Buttle (Needs a quad)
5. Chengjiang Li
6. Ryan Jahnke (great he made it to the final, but I don't think he'll get any higher)

LADIES
1. Irina Slutskaya (Great to see her back so strong)
2. Joannie Rochette (she's on fire this season)
3. Shizuka Arakawa (I find her kinda boring this season...sorry)
4. Cynthis Phaneuf (She's doing great, but still has some growing to do)
5&6. Miki Ando and Yoshi Onda (could go either way)

PAIRS
1. Xue Shen / Hongbo Zhao (Just as great as always)
2. Dan Zhang / Hao Zhang (These 2 are becomming amazing)
3. Maria Petrova / Alexei Tikhonov (Great technically, but kinda boring)
4. Qing Pang / Jian Tong
5. Julia OBERTAS / Sergei SLAVNOV
6. Rena INOUE / John BALDWIN, Jr. (Happy for them making the final, but still need alot of work)

DANCE
1. Tatiana Navka / Roman Kostamorav
2. Albena Denkova / Maxim Staviski (Gonna be close between N&K though)
3. Tanith Belbin / Benjamin Agosto
4. Marie-France Dubreuil / Patrice Lauzon (they have the goods to get at least 4th if they skate clean)
5. Galit Chait / Sergei Sakhnovski
6. Isabelle Delobel / Olivier Schonfelder

These aren't necessarily what I would like to see, but simply what I think will happen. Any one else have predictions?

Here are my predictons:

MEN
1. Evgeni Plushenko
2. Jeff Buttle (Keeps getting better all the time. If he could get the quad and both 3 axels to work, he could win Gold at the GPF.)
3. Emanuel Sandhu (has been loosing his edge lately)
4. Brian Joubert (Needs to get rid of this years program and find something like last years program music This years doesn't work for him.)
5. Chengjiang Li (Has quad when on but not much else.)
6. Ryan Jahnke (Needs to get his 3 axel to work and eventually get a quad)

LADIES
1. Irina Slutskaya (Great to see her back)
2. Joannie Rochette (she's doing well)
3. or 4 Shizuka Arakawa
3 or 4. Cynthis Phaneuf
5&6. Miki Ando and Yoshi Onda (could go either way)

PAIRS
1. Xue Shen / Hongbo Zhao (There season.)
2. Dan Zhang / Hao Zhang
3. Maria Petrova / Alexei Tikhonov ( what about in between the tricks?)
4. Qing Pang / Jian Tong
5. Julia OBERTAS / Sergei SLAVNOV
6. Rena INOUE / John BALDWIN, Jr. (Happy for them making the final, but still need alot of work)

DANCE
1. Tatiana Navka / Roman Kostamorav
2. Albena Denkova / Maxim Staviski
3. Tanith Belbin / Benjamin Agosto

Because he usually always does and looks to be the most ready out of all the men there. I really like his new program. It's a great start for him.
