Points are the base value plus the GOE, the judges' mean grade of execution without the highest and lowest mark. Each square is one judge's grade, -5 to +5. x: second half, +10%. !: unclear edge. V: reduced value. ★ marks an execution among the season's five best of its kind, out of at least 10. ◆ marks an element at most three skaters skate this season and worth at least the usual base value of its kind.
About the program
Mark Pillay choreographed Niina Petrokina's Game of Thrones free, their fifth season working together. It's mostly Ramin Djawadi ("Mother of Dragons," "Not Today," "Mhysa") plus Matt Bellamy's High Valyrian "Pray," and she skates it as Daenerys.
At Skate Canada it scored 143.83, second in the free and silver overall at 221.07. She swapped the planned quad Salchow for a triple to skate clean, and both triple flips drew edge calls. "Today, I can say I was Daenerys, and I fought till the end," she told Golden Skate.
Fans on r/FigureSkating split on it. Some liked the spirals in the choreo sequence and the ending. Others disliked the music cuts, the Daenerys voice clips and a dress they felt didn't read as Game of Thrones at all.
