He was good in the last game, but 5 points in the prelims, with games against the Swiss and Norway, for the apparent 'best hockey player in the world', just isn't good enough in my opinion.
This quote from your article Leto seems like sour grapes to me on the part of the Italian team.
Quote:
“When you compete in your home country the crowd goes crazy and it can help the skaters,” said Scali, who placed fifth with his partner Federica Faiella. “I hope that it does not affect the judges.
“I don’t agree with the system. They [Virtue and Moir] are not real dancers. They are very technical and don’t really ‘dance’ on the ice.”

From my very, very limited knowledge of Ice Dancing, it looked like they put on a beautiful skate, and won a well deserved gold medal.
