Their transformation into Paul & Islam is nearly complete!
Zach Donohue "liked" the tweet, so I assume it's true.
This was a disaster for P/I, so I hope H/B fare better. Because assuming the both live, they could hardly fare worse.
I said it was a disaster for P/I. Their programs were terrible (which was unsurprising considering how bad their FD from Patrice was the prior season), and their results were worse. It was just a bad match. And I hope that whatever made it a bad match for P/I doesn't happen for H/B.Why do you say it is a disaster?

Come to think of it, I don't recall them competing last season. Are they still together and still skating?

While there are some interesting parallels between P/I and H/B, I always thought of P/I as competent but bland skaters that did most things well but nothing extraordinary. And regardless of program, P/I's skating never seemed to bring the music to life. I'm sure they were/are nice people but lacking in the persona/chemistry department, so I agree with above.
P/I were the exception for Gadbois, in that all of their other teams have improved while training there in the last quad.
Lee & Kam didn't. They had a disappointing season after moving from Vancouver to Montreal--a season with more major mistakes, less inspiring programs, and apparently concussions for her that led to an early retirement.
No one has all success stories. You win some, and sadly you lose some.
I don't follow Juniors and managed to miss this team entirely.
They retired before just before challenge....I really thought they had found the right programs that year & loved Paul in the short dance....She was injured between short and free (from memory here)at a gp & WD.They retired before 2017 Nationals.
I thank you for your honesty! I agree that both of these two strong members may not have another spurt in they're future, but I think that with the talented Marie they will find a way to over-come limitations and perhaps get a different program then the one they have been doing for so many seasons.Honestly , without a growth spurt ( impossible) this team is super limited. She looks like she weighs more than HIM. That is not a knock against her. She’s fit. He’s so slight. One reason Scott Moir could lift Tessa who wasn’t a lot shorter was because he was SUPER strong and in great physical shape particularly in terms of his strength. Also, Tessa is VERY strong.
