It's fantastic when a great skater finally puts it together and does a Paul Wylie, Rudy Galindo or Liz Manley, ending their eligible careers on a high note.

But what about the skaters who don't? Certainly, it's about the jumps. The likes of Plushenko who make quads look like doubles; well, it's so unfair. But kudos to them.

Anyway, here's my list of skaters (who have yet to put it together)

1. Emmanuel Sandhu (His Journey of Man lp from 2001 worlds still gets me. Wow!)
2. Ilya Klimkin. Maybe after his silver at the 2003 GPF, this could be his competition.
3. Sasha Cohen. Land the jumps and the title is yours!

The first name that immediately came to mind when I read this topic heading was Josée Chouinard. :cry:

another vote for Josee!
also, if he had gotten that darn triple axel, Sebastien Britten would have gone far.

Angela Nikodinov. Every day in practices at the rink she is amazing. Unfortunately when it comes to compeitions she isn't able to pull it all together. I haven't given up hope on her yet.

I agree, Angela Nikodinov. This gal has it, she just can't do it in competition.
