The first signs of storm clouds came Wednesday night when Man- itoba’s Jeff Stoughton scored four in the eighth end to defeat Gushue 9-5, handing the Newfoundland & Lab- rador rink their first loss of the tour- nament. Manitoba improved to 6-1 while Gushue dropped to 7-1. “I didn’t expect to go 11-0,” said Gushue. “I would have rather it (the loss) come later.” In the decisive eighth end Mani- toba stuffed six stones in the house. Gushue had no other option but to throw a rocket that removed two of Stoughton’s rocks. “He was pretty hooped,” said Stoughton, the 2011 world cham- pion. Gushue knew the match was over. “That eighth end was pretty frus- trating,” said the 2006 Olympic gold medallist. “We knew we were up the creek without a paddle.” Defending champion Glenn Howard of Ontario used a 7-3 win over James Grattan of New Brun- swick to improve his record to 7-0 and take over sole position of first place.
