It looks as though Mr. Gushue finished second in the Brier round-robin, guaranteeing him a place in the finals. Earlier in the week things weren't looking that good, I believe at one point his record was 1 - 3. Fortunately, he was able to turn things around and go on a 7 game winning streak to finish the round.
His first play-off game will be tonight with the finals on Sunday.
A Newfoundland team is also competing at the World Junior's. It looks as though Deveraux's team has made the playoffs in that competition also.
It is an odd experience to see people against whom I used to curl at the top of the game. One dosen't expect this sort of things from Newfoundland based sports teams. I guess the St. John's Curling Club after school program has some results to show for its efforts.
