4 teams are 2 games clear of everyone else. Either 5 losses will be enough or these 4 teams will hold on to the playoff spots

These standings look backwards.
Korea at 5-1???? 
The mind boggles, last year 2-9 this year already 5 wins, I haven't seen them play so I have no clue how this has come about.
SCO,CHN,USA at four losses already. They need to pick it up, thankfully for the Americans they're doing just that.

From the start the Korean skip was shooting lights out... and I said if her team starts shooting good, they would be there at the end... looks like the girls are for real. Now we'll see if they peaked too soon and tomorrow's game will definitely be one to watch.

What's happening with attendance at the worlds? I thought westerners prided themselves on being the hotbed of action.
After 10 rounds- attendance is less than 20 000.
Is it the calibre of play or expensive tickets or location?

Perhaps its just TC. Anyone else find Canada annoying as heck to watch? Do the women's worlds ever draw huge numbers? I wish TSN would broadcast games when Canada has a bye.

Telecasting Canada in every game is a tradition I think needs to end. We have yet to see Scotland, Korea, and Sweden ( until now ) which are some of the bigger stories in the event. Any Team Canada gets boring if their in EVERY game.
Your idea is good, that Korea vs Denmark game was crucial to playoff hopes and had what looks to be a fantastic finish. Should have been on TV.

AYE! Especially if they aren't really playing that great to be honest, despite their record. Team Canada has really been underwhelming and extremely lucky so far.

Especially when they are relying on her for EVERYTHING. I'm also a little annoyed at the lack of rocks in play with team Canada... and when there are rocks in play, they get burned.

 First step - qualify. Then regroup and keep doin' what you're doin'. Some solid planning has gone into this. Who is the mastermind!? WTG Team.

SHOCK!!
I'm cheering hard FOR Korea in tomorrow's match up... I hope both teams bring their A-game!
Hopefully tonite's loss to Sweden will wake Team Canada up! It's the home stretch and they need to really pull it together.

I'm almost positive that with one more win, Korea is guaranteed at least a tiebreaker. Two wins and they're guaranteed a playoff spot!
Great to see they've come a long way!

I'm too distracted by the frenetic "HARD!!!!" "NOOOO!" "HARDDD!" "NOOOO!" line calls to even notice the lack of make up. I actually feel stressed watching Team Canada play at times.

Still a lot to be decided, Korea has the toughest finishing schedule of anyone. That basically puts the top 4 teams in the same boat, scrap it out for those top two positions and do not crash and burn ( letting other teams back in ).

I'm a little concerned about Team Canada to be honest. They have KOR, GER, SCO, and ITA. I don't see any problems with ITA but those first 3 teams will put up a fight especially GER and SCO who are at 4 losses.

I can see Canada going 2-2 the next 2 days, but I don't see them winning with how they're playing. How many times has Nedohin made a skipper's deuce/saved the end for the team?
