We're down to the final four pairs tonight, and I think it's pretty clear that Tie Domi has to go. He's clearly the worst skater of the group. He excels at lifting his partner, Toughy Hough, and swinging her around, but he lacks the ability to actually skate. The other skater in the bottom two with Tie tomorrow night will either be Stephane Richer or Claude Lemieux. Both of them skated well but not spectacularly.
Craig Simpson is the guy who is head and shoulders above the rest. He and Jamie Sale skated to the Austin Powers theme and they clearly had a lot of fun taking on the movie personas for this performance. He blew me away with a three waltz jump combo - and it was done in unison with Jamie. I look forward to watching them skate every week. The judges gave them 5.9s, but it was most obviously a 6.0 performance.
For Monday night's skate off, Domi really got turned around during the middle of his performance and then couldn't seem to get himself back together for the rest of his program. He ended up getting the boot.
