2018 Pyeongchang Olympics | CURLING | Feb 8th - 25th

[Daisy Jane]

now my question would be does Canada do their powerplay to really put the heat on the Swiss. I'm v. tempted to say why not.

 

[Adonis Creed]

no, you keep the PP for 7th end.

 

[Daisy Jane]

no, you keep the PP for 7th end.

admittedly knew to mixed curling. is it just better to have it in the 7th to nullify the 8th if you have enough points?

 

[Adonis Creed]

You keep it if you get stole against in 5th...and need it in 8th end...

you keep it longre with a bigger lead...

 

[Cloned]

I think Lawes is finally living up to that potential she had as a junior curler.

 

[Daisy Jane]

oho had that curled. lol

 

[GQS]

Swiss making wayyyy too many mistakes. Canada is playing very well, but the Swiss are giving them alot of good looks to score pts. Perhaps the Russians would've been stronger competition if they didn't mess up against the Swiss last round.

 

[Adonis Creed]

6-3 is pefrcect...hold them to 1-2 max there...used the PP to score 1 or 2 and it's GOLD.

[Daisy Jane]

[Bures Elbow]

[Daisy Jane]

[Daisy Jane]

Rios looks gutted.

 

[Bures Elbow]

The Swiss shake and give up the last 2 ends

YESSSS

someone post a picture of Lawes being thrust into the air

 

[Adonis Creed]

poor Rios had a nightmare...

nobody had the talent of Canada. Gushue-Sweeting was the best team in qualifiers but Morris-Lawes we'Re on A ROLL

 

[saskriders]

Wow, I think the Swiss may have had a shot for 6 if Rios had made his last. IIRC he had three up-weight shots where he was wide. I wonder if they were misreading the ice, or if he was doing something in his release.
