Elena Ilyich the Olympic ice dance bronze medalist has joined Plushenko's coaching team. I wonder in what role? Will she be an asset?

Ilinykh? That's interesting, I thought she had an academy with Lipnitskaya. Has that project been abandoned, then?
You may be right about how they traveled around the country teaching kids how to skate. But I thought they had a base in Sochi Russia.Maybe Yulia/Elena team was more of a temporary thing, to gain experience and become established coaches or join an established team? AFAIK, they didn't even have a permanent rink and travelled around the country giving lessons to mostly younger kids instead.

I miss her in dance
It to the best of my knowledgde was always temporary. Strategically it makes more sense to join forces.
Does anyone know about which shooting Elena is talking about here?

It was never made clear exactly why her partnership with Katsalapov broke up. Dance-wise, they were the next great partnership, but there seemed to be personality issues.
Anyway, good for her going forward. She is one of those performers who lights up the room just by walking in the door.
