After the 2014 season, Kennedy left the Martin team to play third for Kevin Koe’s rink, winning another Brier and representing Canada at the 2018 Olympics.Not many seconds have as accomplished a record as Scott Pfeifer, who was part of Randy Ferbey’s Alberta foursome’s remarkable run in the early 2000s.
