Koe hands Gushue first Brier loss:
BRANDON, Man. — The host province has hit turbulence at the Canadian men's curling championship.
"There's a lot that goes into this so this is tough when these things happen. It's like a job demotion or something like that. It's not good.""I can make those with my eyes closed and I didn't today," the skip said. Alberta's Kevin Koe topped Pool B at 4-0 and handed defending champion Brad Gushue his first loss Monday night.
The top four teams from two pools of eight Wednesday advance to the championship round, from which the four Page playoff teams emerge. The partnership of McEwen and Carruthers this season constituted a"super-team" as the men are considered among the best skips in the business.Having played for Carruthers since 2014, the front end of second Derek Samagalski and lead Colin Hodgson made for a seasoned foursome with big-game experience.
Manitoba's interest in curling and the successful record of its teams nationally and internationally coined the phrase"the buffalo is heavy."
