Another title for the reigning Canadian men's curling champion would make him the first skip to win four straight Brier crowns. Gushue, vice Mark Nichols and lead Geoff Walker are also tied with Randy Ferbey for the most all-time Brier titles with six.
Gushue, who opened with a 9-2 win over Newfoundland and Labrador's Ty Dilello on Friday night, won the Brier for the first time in 2017 in a memorable national playdowns in his hometown. If the Brier winner finishes in the top three, the fourth-ranked team would secure the last pre-qualified spot in the 18-team field.
Gushue opened with a deuce against his fellow clubmates from the Rock and took a 5-1 lead into the fifth-end break.
