Scotties bound!

Will Homan or Einarson be able to add a sixth title to their resume?

Back to the Brier!

Rinks skipped by Brad Jacobs, Tyler Tardi, and defending champion Matt Dunstone were announced today as the three pre-qualified teams for next year's Canadian men's championship in Saskatoon.

Despite Tardi being a newcomer to the rink, the three players sticking together in Colton Flasch, and Dan and Kevin Marsh allowed them to claim the qualifier spot.

Mark Nichols took to Team Dunstone's IG page today to answer a few offseason questions.

And while he pondered trying to put together his own rink, he's happy right where he ended up 😁

American curling legend John Shuster's ready to get things going with a new rink.
