Piper Gilles and Paul Poirier probably have had the worst season start of any top skater or team this year. Off the podium at both of their Grand Prix events, missing levels on major elements in each program, and really mixed opinions about both programs.
Following 2016 Worlds, many people thought they would pass Weaver and Poje, but the return of Virtue and Moir seems to have stunted any room for improvement.
With three American teams, Papadakis/Cizeron, two other Canadian teams, two Russian teams, and two Italian teams competing in PyeongChang, is it possible that Gilles and Poirier become the odd 11th team out?
