This and That: Alena Kostornaia Returns to Eteri Tutberidze ( алена косторная, Этери Тутберидзе)
Danny G may not have decided yet, but Alena Kostornaia groveled and begged Eteri Tutberidze for forgiveness earlier this week. We break down all of our many thoughts about the motivations for this return, what it means for the Angels of Plushenko and whether anyone in Russian figure skating will ever be paying 41 million rubles ($560,000) to Evgeni Plushenko for his coaching. Then, we break down Jessica Calalang and Brian Johnson withdrawing from worlds, Amber Glenn being the pan queen of skating, and whether Jonathan has any issues with Veronika Zhilina skating to Samson and Deliliah. Plus, Diana Davis and Gleb Smolkin, Sofia Akatyeva, Sofia Samodelkina, Adelia Petrosyan and more!

As The Blade Turns: Alena Kostornaia is Injured (Алена Косторная травмирована) 1,370 views • Premiered 72 minutes ago • Alena Kostornaia, the prodigal daughter of Team Tutberidze, is out of the 2022 Russian Figure Skating Championships with a fractured wrist. As usual, no exact details are being reported, yet it has not prevents from Tatiana Tarasova, Ilia Averbukh, Renat Laishev, Alena Leonova, Alexander Zhulin, Irina Rodnina, Alexander Gorshkov or Natalia Bestemianova from giving their opinions. While Sports.Ru is eager to point out the many injuries on Team Tutberidze, angel girls Anna Shcherbakova and Kamila Valieva gave interviews praising Queen Eteri Tutberidze. Before Alena Kostornaia's cast has even been signed by Daria Usacheva, there are those who are speculating what it means for the Olympic team selection. David Spletnikov breaks it all down on the latest edition of' As The Blade Turns'. The silver medalist of the World Figure Skating Championship Alena Leonova commented on the withdrawal of the European Champion - 2020 Alena Kostornaya from the pre-Olympic championship of Russia due to injury. Competitions will be held in St. Petersburg from 23 to 26 December. “Injuries are always bad, it all depends on the severity. Let's hope that Alena will quickly recover and return to the ice. I cannot say that due to the absence of Kostornaya, the fight at the Russian championship will become less interesting: we have someone to watch for, the intrigue remains. I wonder how Alena will be selected for further competitions. Usually, for athletes of this level who are in the top, additional control rentals are arranged. The coaching staff will analyze the situation, the results of the skates at the Russian Championship, and see who will get the third ticket to the European Championship. It's too early to say anything, Alena still has some chances for the Olympic Games.

As The Blade Turns: Willing Suspension of Disbelief, Daria Usacheva, Alexandra Trusova 10,275 views • Premiered Dec 16, 2021 • This week Daria Usacheva announced that she would be returning to the ice rink after two more weeks of treatment for her recent hip fracture. While we officially learned that we wouldn't see her at the 2022 Russian Figure Skating Championships, we did learn that Alexandra Trusova will perform. Eteri Tutberidze's allies were quick to tell us that she surely has recovered from her injury. Alena Kostornaia also told us that her injury could have happened to anyone at any time and Morisi Kvitelashvili that he learned how to jump his toe loop and salchow the way he does in childhood. David Spletnikov is intrigued and impressed by all of Team Tutberidze's efforts in public relations damage control and breaks down his favorite stories from Sambo 70 in the latest edition of 'As The Blade Turns'.
