Maybe a very, very dark horse. Right now Patrick's programs do not have the base points that Fernandez, Chen, (a healthy Hanyu), Jin, or Uno have.
It is the Olympics though and there could be some missteps like we saw in Sochi and a bit in Helsinki.
But I don't see Chen stumbling again like last year nor do I see Fernandez making the same catastrophic error. Hanyu is probably too hurt to be on the podium.
