Regulation games are played on 145-long ice sheets with players throwing 42-pound rocks twice each “end” (like an inning), for 10 ends total. Matches can last almost three hours, and sweepers routinely cover two-and-a-half miles in a single competition-level game. Stamina, balance, flexibility and finesse are key,

So the Swedes have to buy our girls a round now?

No, Canada buys

What happens if they touch a rock when sweeping?

I've yet to see that happen
- CanadianBodmon

The rock becomes a dead rock and is removed from playing. It's a big no-no as it's a waste of a shot.

Sidorova from the Russian team.

Tavares out for the season.



Ouch

Never curled. How hard is it for a casual curler to draw to the button on command?

Pretty dam hard. You'll have to master sliding without wiping out first.

Sidorova from the Russian team.

I don't want to see them trade Gardiner for the sake of making a trade, but I do think if he went, Brennan could do the same job.

1st round pick..Leafs are sellers...

Gord Miller @GMillerTSN
With a win today, Jayna Hefford @J16H and Hayley Wickenheiser @wick_22 would become the first Canadians to win four Olympic gold medals.

I like Brennan too. Gards/lupul/kuli/2nd for eberle/hall

- robin_steele264

Yes. Don't want to move him, and they probably don't get value back.

What do you think those teams would offer?

I'm just saying it looks boring to the point where I'd only play it if it were all I could play. I can't think of many team sports that are less physically demanding. Baseball maybe depending on position.

It's actually pretty fun to play. A lot more physical than you'd expect.
