So just why did fans resort to the Hundred Acre Wood's favorite bear?

Hanyu would place a Winne-the-Pooh tissue box cover on the rink's boards as a good luck charm when he was younger, and it's remained a mainstay.

It even has a Twitter account.

Fans have since taken to throwing the bear as symbol of support.
