Will Sochi's Olympic team skating return in 2018?
Apparently the ISU has applied to the IOC for synchro skating to be a 2018 sport. Good news for synchro fans.
If synchro is accepted, will it inevitably replace the team figure skating competition launched in Sochi ? :think:
"Team event" is listed on the PyeongChang page below. (But I suppose it could be interpreted as synchro, if synchro is accepted.)
I liked the team event, and hope it will return. (No offense to synchro.)

ETA, update as of Sep 29 from Hersh:
Cinquanta said that synchro (if accepted by the IOC for 2018) would not replace team figure skating in 2018.
