So Canada will play for Bronze today after another tough loss to Korea.

We've talked about ice a lot here and I think I'm seeing the difference. World ice has less curl and less drag, meaning the world teams throw straighter. Canadian teams are used to 'letting the brushers' take it. They get a lot of curl late and a lot of drag. So they can really go around guards and finish, but cannot do the same on world ice. It makes for a less precise game and more random results.

Squiggs! Does this make sense!?
