“It hurts we didn’t have our best game. Tough conditions,” explained Saskatchewan skip, Mike McEwen. “I think you could tell that both teams were struggling with the ice but Brad was stellar you know the first four ends. You know he nailed us the first four ends.”
Team Saskatchewan’s third, Colton Flasch, commended his teammates for their effort in the final.
“I’ll have to look back at it. Came out a little flat unfortunately but the boys battled hard in the second half,” he said. “I mean it was great [this experience]. I mean the fans are awesome, I couldn’t ask for much more. We had a great week.”
Saskatchewan did defeat Canada in the round robin. However, the 9-5 loss on Sunday night was decisive.
“We beat them Saturday night and unfortunately he’s the defending champ and he’s hard to put away on Sunday night. We have everything to be proud of, what we did in six months,” McEwen explained, referring to the team only beginning their journey together six months ago.
After Canada blanked the first end they opened the scoring in the second with a draw for two. 2-0 heading into the third end as Saskatchewan was about to get their first crack with the hammer.
