Does this mean Gracie is going to Nats? But this is off topic. I can't believe H and B; I hope she heals fast.

Hawaywek is still recovering from her concussion. That is concerning. Head injuries are so dangerous especially in a sport that involves twizzling and spinning I hope she gets better soon. So who would be the favorite for the third oly spot if H and B aren't ready or too behind in training. Parsons and Green?

Mine 3. I autocorrected it to workhorse when I read it and thought it was oversensitive to consider that rude!

He was about to be the ONE consistent Russian man and just got his first-ever Grand Prix medal, and now he's injured? Whyyyyyy

Last year he sat out of the grand prix b/c of the pandemic. The year before, he had a complete season and won silver at GPF.

I was just looking on the Russian message board FSO Cool and there's an update on Daria. At first they said a hip fracture, but apparently it's a ligament tear 
Still sounds very painful, but it also said the recovery time is quicker.
Fingers crossed
for Dasha.

Concerning injuries, I hope everyone injured will make a safe and good recovery.
I can't help thinking about something Frank Carroll said about Michelle Kwan in his TSL interview. One of the things that made Michelle unusual, he said, was that she had a very sensitive attentiveness to what all was going on in her body. If she came in and told Frank that her left foot hurt a little, he'd say, 'Then we'll just practice one (fill-in-the-blank) jump today, and then we'll work on other things.
It takes two. A skater who pays attention, and a coach who alters the training plan accordingly. Is that an unsuitable method, one that won't work in today's skating environment? Or did Frank Carroll have a clearer understanding of how recovery works, and prevention of serious injury?
The following quote is a comment from a Russian article today: https://www.sports.ru/figure-skatin...usachevoj-ne-skazhu-chto-est-vina-trener.html
But I'm sure most of us remember Alena Kostornaia saying it recently:

"When someone here says that something hurts, Eteri Georgievna gathers us all and says:" Raise your hands, for whom nothing hurts, "Alena Kostornaya.

The JSF who didn’t allow substitutions is also to blame. Way to put more pressure on skaters in an already difficult year.
To be fair, she wasn't carried "off the ice". She got off the ice on her own power, which much have been a tremendous effort on her part given the type of injury she suffered.

Oh, gosh, it sounds nasty. Poor Daria. I hope she can get through it.
