To finish seventh in a night when Slutskaya, Butyrskaya, Kwan, Cohen, Hughes and Suguri were skating is incredible (and a little heart-breaking - it was probably the deepest women's field ever).
Wow...I have watched the women's long programs over and over and I see this as the artistic program of the evening...equal to if not better than Kwan. Shame she skated early and couldn't feasibly get more points.
someone should post her 2004 world championships long program with a teary eyed coach at the end.

I'm meeting her on March break! She's coming to my arena for a seminar. I'm so excited!!!

She has such an elegant style, but she skates so slowly...

She had problems with combo jumps because they are extremely difficult to do!

Very artistic performance. She deserved to be 6th here over a crappy Butyrskaya.

Butyrskaya skated with more speed and her technic is much better. She was so shaky here but no one can compare Maria with Jennifer
