Manitoba 5, Northwest Territories 4
After a back-and-forth affair, Manitoba handed the Northwest Territories its fifth straight loss with a point in the 11th end to earn the 5-4 win.
Manitoba took a 2-0 lead in the first end, but the Northwest Territories tied it after the second end. Manitoba retook the lead in the fourth, but again the Northwest Territories evened things in the fifth. But Manitoba earned the win in the 11th.
It was a big win for Mike McEwen and company after Monday night's tough loss to Alberta, 9-4, highlighted by McEwen's failed freeze attempt in the fourth that led to four points for Alberta.
I don't regret the decision," McEwen said after Monday's loss, per Tim Baines of the Ottawa Sun. "We thought we'd put it on the line, and it didn't work out well."
Manitoba came up big with the match on the line on Tuesday, however, getting back above .500 heading into a key match with Canada on Tuesday night.
Newfoundland and Labrador 7, New Brunswick 4

After a thrilling back-and-forth contest, Quebec scored two in the 10th end to steal a 6-5 win over British Columbia, which had taken a 5-4 lead in the ninth with a two of their own.
They couldn't hold off Quebec, however.
The two sides exchanged runs throughout the match, with British Columbia scoring in the second, fourth and sixth but Quebec responding in the third, fifth, seventh and eighth.
