So they only allow a team of 6? Am I to understand that they can't switch off skaters for the SP and LP? So like, Jeremy Abbott couldn't do the SP while Jason Brown does the LP? They's have to choose either Jeremy OR Jason to do both?

Each country is allowed to switch entries -- btwn SP/SD and FS/FD -- in a maximum of two out of the four disciplines.

It is theoretically possible for Abbott to skate the SP and Brown the FS, if Team USA is willing to use up one of its two allotted switches.
