Looks like Walker has hit a wall for the 2nd year in a row....she best win this afternoon or she may miss the championship round.

Really impressed by those Quebec ladies...aggressive team too.

Einerson and Homan look like the class....again.

Quebec games are insane, 100 rocks in play.

It’s great though. I think women’s curling is better than men’s in general because there are more rocks in play.

And egg on my face after the comment about Team Canada. That rink is playing like a well-oiled machine.

The Quebec skip blew the game tonight with that inexplicable decision in the 9th. Too bad, they were playing great. Still in it.

Wow, Group B is in big trouble. All teams at 2 losses going to beat up on each other the next 2 days. And then the survivors have to carry their record over to the Championship round and face Homan and Einerson.

The Homan-Einerson game tomorrow is most likely for a ticket to the final (no page playoff this year)

Yah that was inexperience in my mind. I like the Quebec ladies, they really like to junk it up and they look like they're really having fun on the ice which we don't see a whole lot of. Hopefully they are one of the "next" teams in Ladies curling.

Quite the upset this morning: NWT over Ontario. Team Canada is now the only perfect rink.

Yeah...looking at Homans face during the 10th end was humorous.

You could just hear the conversation in her head

"How the #### are we losing to this ####in team"...almost pouting.

Einerson is locked in right now....no one even close at the moment.

Huge game this afternoon between Jones/Birt.

Would be awesome to see some new blood in the playoffs.

And I agree with the above...Quebec is fun to watch....just so aggressive and love to have rocks in play which makes for way better viewing.

At this point sure looks like the usual suspects will be in the mix at the end. I expect that was a hiccup by Homan and she will be in the final 3 along with Einerson. Jones should have two easy wins tomorrow and I imagine she rounds it out but maybe there’s a playoff for 3rd.

Was really hoping Birt would make her way in there but she is just not at this level.

Birt's having her hands full against Nunavut this morning!

There shouldn't be a tiebreaker in Group A. Walker should handles Yukon easily thus making Peterson vs Galusha the de facto tiebreaker.

I was thinking more for the final playoffs. I just don't see any surprises making there way into that. I expect it will be three former champions in the playoffs.

Walker will make playoffs and hopefully she finds a way to elevate her game one more level and she can move on through to the final. I have been quite impressed by the Quebec team didn’t know a lot about them a week ago hope they stay together.

Walker has the advantage of being 5-3 and already played Einerson and Homan. The key game in the crossover will be against Jones.

Walker is into the championship round. This 'tiebreaker' between Peterson and Galusha is really good, high scoring. And Homan is up on Einerson which will make the championship round more interesting.


As for the other group, if Birt beats Brown tonight, she will force a tiebreaker(s). Otherwise, there will be no tiebreakers tomorrow morning. Caray is holding down 4th at 5-3 waiting to see what happens.

Peterson steals a spot into the Championship round, literally!

Down 8-5 after 8 ends, scored 2 in 9, then stole 1 in both 10 and 11.

Today's the day for AB to show they belong. Games against QC and MB. Not sure mathematically they need to win both, but it feels like AB needs to run the table in the championship pool to have a shot at the top 3.

Yeah, top 3 instead of top 4 makes a huge difference. I think the 5-3 teams have to run the table.


I don't think 8-4 gets you in, maybe a tiebreaker with a lot of help.

Carey almost pulled off the miracle triple to win. Needed Kevin Koe weight.
