Apparently Renata Oganesian & Mark Bardei announced split. I'm going to miss their partnership :(
 
Taylor Tran and Saulius Ambrulevicius (#18 at European Championships and #30 at Worlds this year)

She is retiring from competitive skating
 
Seems that Ioulia Chtchetinina and Noah Scherer has ended their parntership. She's on the icepartnersearch uptaded her profile recently.
Same goes to duo Borisova/Sopot. She's on the website too, but I don't know what about him.

In this pic one can see Sopot with his new partner.

Katia has said she too has a new partner already but she didn't say his name. She did skate with Selkin for a while but that could have been just a temporary thing while they both were looking for new partners.
 
Some new pairs.

Daria Gubina / Vladislav Mirzoev
Elena Pavlova / Daniil Parkman
Anastasia Poluianova / Dmitry Sopot
Nika Osipova / Vladislav Tarasenko
 
The gossip is that Borisova will skate with Deputat, but not sure if it is true. It would mean that the partnership with Proklova did not work out.
 
I think this season not many will split. They will split a lot after Olympic.
 
There can be plenty of change at the junior level, and at the low senior level (those who have no chance of going to Olympic no matter what).
 
R-Sport is reporting that Ruslan Zhiganshin has retired. No word what's going to happen to Elena.

If she wants to continue, prime opportunity for Pashka Drozd to upgrade if he wants....

Sad for Ruslan, he was a lovely skater.

Actually, I was thinking about Drozd for Elena. Though they would need some time to even their skills since he has just moved from juniors. But he has potential and Loboda, unfortunatelly, has almost hit her potential, some of her flaws cannot be improved...
 
News,

Andrew Dodds announced via Twitter that he will be competing both Singles AND Ice Dance with Chantelle Kerry.
 
Finnish pair Emilia Simonen&Matthew Penasse have ended their partnership after skating only a year together. Apparently Simonen is looking for a new partner and Penasse's new partner is Liubov Efimenko.
 
After splitting at the start of 2016 and re-uniting at the start of 2017, it has just been announced that British Ice Dancers Ellie O'Connell and Josh Tarry have split again.

Hello!

We've not posted anything in a little while so wanted to update everyone about what's been happening.

Ellie and I have decided to take a break from competitive skating for the moment.

We've been through a lot together and will always be the best of friends 💑 💞

I'm continuing to skate on my own and Ellie is learning to coach herself.

We want to thank everyone for the support they've shown Team Jellie, especially our coaches Sophie, Neil, David, Woody and Nick 💓💓💓💓

All the best to Ellie and Josh in the new directions their careers are taking them in.

Whoa, I've just spotted a new Fan Fest, which must mean that there is even bigger news in the Ice Dance world that I had missed.

After Ruslan Zhiganshin's retirement through injury, Elena Ilinykh is now being partnered by Anton Shibnev.

Elena Ilinykh & Anton Shibnev

I just don't know what to say.

Shibnev wasn't good enough to keep up with Morozov's current wife last season, and she was brand new to Ice Dance. So, how on Earth is he going to keep up with Morozov's far more experienced ex?!

Good luck Elena. I really hope he can up his game for you.
