One nice article from "Figure Skating Examinerr" www.examinerr.com about Zhenya:
History
2006 Olympic Champion Evgeny Plushenko made his comeback announcement during March. His decision was not at all unexpected, as he had hinted at a comeback a few times when he was away from competition. After his silver medal in Salt Lake City in 2002, Plushenko dominated the men’s field and won almost every competition he competed in, culminating in his win in Torino in 2006. In the three years since, Russian men have all but fallen off the radar in figure skating, with the best Russian finish at Worlds being Sergei Voronov’s 7th place in 2008. Plushenko had stated that the lack of Russian presence in men’s figure skating was one of the catalysts for his return to competitive skating.

Analysis
Plushenko was a technical pioneer during the years he dominated men’s figure skating. He popularized the three-jump combination, first competing a quad toe-triple toe-double loop in 1999. He later competed the same combination, but with a triple loop at the end. His quadruple toe was the most consistent of any of the men. His jumping prowess was always balanced by the high Program Component Scores (PCS), which made him almost untouchable when he skated cleanly.

In March, his agent, Ari Zakarian, told the AP that Plushenko had already “mastered two quadruple jumps.” Those two jumps are likely the quad toe and the quad salchow, which he landed in 2004. Since Plushenko’s win at the 2006 Olympics, two of the three men’s World Champions did not have a quadruple jump in their programs, which bodes well for Plushenko’s chances.

However, men’s skating has evolved somewhat since 2006. Skaters like Patrick Chan, Jeffrey Buttle, Evan Lysacek, and Johnny Weir have changed the men’s free skate. The top men in the world now have more balanced programs than before, with better basic skating, more intricate transitions, and greater style. Even though Plushenko demolished the field in Torino, some criticized his free skate construction as jump to jump with little emphasis on the relationship to the music.

It will be interesting to see how 2009 judges will place Plushenko’s PCS relative to the other top skaters. But if he is looking to continue his dominance over the field, it will be necessary for his programs to be better-constructed than they were in 2006. The judges have grown more accustomed to seeing more well-rounded programs, and they have been awarding the quality programs over those that are technically superior.

First Test
First up for Plushenko will be the Rostelecom Cup (formerly the Cup of Russia) in October, a competition he had won seven consecutive times. He will face off with World Silver [Corrected from "Bronze" thanks to Jane] Medalist Patrick Chan and three-time U.S. Champion Johnny Weir.

Predictions
Given the state of Russian men’s figure skating since 2006, Plushenko will have no problem qualifying for one of the two spots on the Olympic team. After three years out of competition, he may need the Grand Prix events to get his competition legs under him again. It will be necessary for him to show the kind of consistency and technical ability that helped him win seven World and Olympic medals. It will also be important for his programs to be well-constructed and choreographed. That said, it is easy to see Plushenko reemerge this season competition-ready and with a new-found motivation after three years away from the sport that he loves.

Which do you think is more likely as his return match, Samara or Perm? I thought at first, he decided to Perm. But Papa Mishin and President Piseev still say that it's Samara. :AddEmoticons04259.gif:
I read it again. #entry342873064 Hmm. He didn't say his return will be in Perm or Samara. Only this article says that his return will be in Perm in early October. :unsure:

Return Plushenko in big-time sports will be held at Rublevke?
http://kp.ru/daily/24348/537081/
......
- There is already a schedule of speeches Plushenko in this season? When and where will it return?
- We had an agreement that Zhenya will speak at the first stage of the Cup of Russia figure skating in Samara. It will be held from 15 to 19 September. However, in terms of this tournament coincides with the exponential hire members of team Russia, which will be held 19 - 20 September in the arena «Rink pv », that Rublevo-Uspensky highway. Therefore, in the near future will be determined, where will be the second coming Plushenko: Samara or Rublovka......

I understand why he couldn't decide :)

Oh, Pisaev will TOGETHER with Evgeni's decide where he will first perform?! :o: :shifty: This is some kind of "duty", which Zhenya has to do for this bureaucrats from federation? :sick: Is the show more important than competition, no matter how small it was? :angry:
It is certainly important for Plushy! :kaos-pika09.gif:

P.S. http://www.katok.ru/ ... there nothing written about this show :AddEmoticons04259.gif:

Thank you, dimi, for the video!

Can anybody please translate what Plushy and Papa Mishin said? Oh our boy looks so young and well! I can't wait to see his new step sequence in final form. It seems he's all ready for the big game. :lol:

from golden skates

Evgeni said how happy he was when he first landed quad and 4-3 after 3 years. Mishin said that Plushenko's spins are better and more difficult now then it was 3 years ago. Then Sergey Voronov said that he likes Evgeni's new program. And in Vancouver Plushenko is going to skate another SP that no one have seen before.
Today Plushenko will show his FS

... translation "Rossia - Vesti Sport"... :rolleyes:

- commentator (studio): Plushenko returned to competition, today in Novogorsk on "Control skate", he introduced its SP, tomorrow (Thursday) - LP.
- commentator: ... confidence and easiest in performing complex elements, even has a fire in his eyes.
- Evgeni said that he enjoy again in sport life, and happy to train every day. When he first time, after the Olympics, landed quad was delighted, after 4-3 combo even more.
- commentator: He needs a lot more work, and that see only specialist - unideally steps, lack of power at the end of the program, but for beginning of August, he is in good shape. Professionals were nevertheless delighted with his skating. For a very short time, he regained all that was previously able - jumps, straight footworks, but even improve his "weak points" - spins, which have previously been his weak point.
- Mishin said that Plushenko's spins are better and more difficult now then it was 3 years ago, and all specialist agree with that. Now they working on other elements, which once were "weaker" in him.
- commentator: Little error after the quadruple jump, not a cause for concern, since it was done so because of leg injuries.
- Evgeni: It was just "insurance". Currently it was not necessary to jump 4-3, so I did not want to risk.
- commentator: There were and Evgeni's competitors, and carefully watched his appearance.
- Sergey Voronov: I am "afraid" :o: - molodec! :lol: ... but seriously, I very much likes his new program.
- commentator: His return to competition is no more intrigue, but Evgeni itself, in a short conversation, given the new: it is not excluded that it will prepare a brand new SP, which nobody has ever seen.

------------------------

Better would be to prepare "brand new" LP :P :B):

P.S. Dimi, I dont see your post ;)
