A quick update before the weekend gets underway at the Men’s Final in Ottawa. Jim tells a story about his sleeping habits at the patch (1:30) and Kevin recaps the action that has happened at the Men's Worlds thus far, with a special shout-out to Türkiye’s performance (3:05). Jim asks Kevin if it’s better to lose in certain situations in order to end up playing a more favourable opponent in the playoffs (6:05), Warren looks at some statistics to see if the statement ‘if you shoot well, you win’ is holding true at the championships (7:15) and the guys wonder why Oskar Eriksson hasn’t been as automatic (9:30). Jim asks Kevin if teams adjust their strategy based on who they are playing against and how you’d try to beat Brad Gushue (10:15). The guys each choose their predictions for Gold, Silver, Bronze…guess where Jim has Gushue ranked this time (13:30).
