Patrick Chan blasts ‘old’ Plushenko

Chan refused to be drawn into the controversy, but said he believed that the
style of skating of 27-year-old Russian Plushenko, who has returned to
competition in a bid to defend his Olympic title, was out of date.

“For me the transitions are one of the most important things in a programme,
otherwise it’s very boring to watch,” he said.

“Above all in a programme like the Phantom of the Opera which I do for the
long programme. It’s important to have good transitions to interpret the
music with unique footwork.

“I love the new system, it’s a great way to promote an all around skater
especially a skater like me,” said Chan.

“He’s (Plushenko) confident that the quad will really help him, that he
doesn’t need transitions. He’s old, I can’t tell him it’s not good.

“I think we’ll start seeing more skaters like me in future generations.”

Chan believes that Plushenko and Joubert will try and intimidate him with the
quad in practice ahead of the competition.

“Of course they’ll (Plushenko and Joubert) do it in practice and will nail
it on front of me,” he said.

“It’s totally normal that’s why the Olympics are so special. I’ll only
use that to feed the fire and focus on what I can do.

“It’s going to be exciting to see what Plushenko has up his sleeve.

“We’re all a bunch of great skaters. It’s whoever who can grasp that moment
on that Tuesday and Thursday.”

“I am not out of it,” said Chan after practice Wednesday. “I’m actually,
technically, in second place because the points are so close. And the long
program is a while different beast. So we’ll see how we handle it.”

“That’s the one thing I thought about (Tuesday) when I got off the ice,”
said Chan. “Jeff didn’t have the best short (in Turin) and he (moved to
third).”
