I’m wondering whether we may start to see talented, but lower-level, pairs skaters (or dancers, for that matter) from Russia or Ukraine start to explore opportunities with unpartnered skaters in Europe or North America. I could see this happening if the current conflict and the current ban on Russian skaters continue on into next season—not with the very top “star” skaters, or those in secure partnerships, of course, but with those who may not see as bright of a competitive future if they stay where they are.
