Apolo won't be attending this WC either. He is staying behind to fix some skate issues in time for Worlds.

Dove, thanks for the schedule for this weekend's flashing numbers! I hope World Cup 6 will be without injuries.

Does anyone know if another skater will be taking Allison's place in Dresden, Vienna and Heerenveen? Or will they skate a (wo)man short? So sorry that Apolo won't be competing next weekend, but Anthony is a worthy replacement. Go get 'em, Cowboy! ;D

Go get 'em, Cowboy! ;D I really hope they get another girl out there - the women didn't work their butts off last season gaining a third spot for it to go empty. Unless they are double-teaming it. But that's got to be draining - and worse, the chance of an injury is greater. Oh and yes, gasp. Aly Dudek would be next in line.

Thanks, dove & sk8on for the time conversions! As for Alyson D getting to Dresden and beyond... hopefully, where there's a will, there's a way!

Just checked the ISU site and they have posted the heats in the preliminaries. I don't see Aly Dudek's name in any of the races. Just skating 5 ladies, it looks like.....Kathryne, Jessica, Lana, Maria and Kim.
