“I was trying to get my heart rate down a little, usually pretty good at that. I’m trying to sign autographs (after the game) and my hands are still shaking,” McEwen said following the victory.
However, the win did not come easy for the team as it ended up a nail biter at the end, coming down to the very last shot for skip, Mike McEwen.
“There’s a lot of factors there and I’m trying to stay within a range that I can still operate. I think I managed to stay there and that was a really good test for me and the guys. We don’t have another game today so we have time to recover from this,” he smirked.
Saskatchewan began the game with hammer and landed a draw for two to take a 2-0 lead.
In the second end, McEwen made a clutch final shot to force skip Matt Dunstone to potentially only get one and with his takeout shot that ultimately was the outcome, 2-1 for Saskatchewan after two.
The third end was a reset for the teams as Saskatchewan recorded a blank to keep the score 2-1 and the team kept the hammer heading into the fourth.
