Reading chapter 6 in JJs book Rock Star, and had to come rewatch - not as a visual aid, but to celebrate all over again!

I am seeing this video again after learning that Jennifer Jones is retiring from 4 person Women's Curling at the end of the 2023-2024 Curling season. Thank you Jennifer for the memories you have given to all of us Curling fans over the years during your legendary curling career which includes winning the 1994 Canadian Junior Curling Championships, 6 times Scotties Champion in 2005 (and winning it with the greatest ever Curling Shot in Curling history), 2008, 2009, 2010, 2015, and 2018, 2 times World Champion in 2008 and 2018 and best of all 2014 Olympic Champion! Jennifer Jones will always be a Curling Legend!

No wayyyyyyy it's finally here.

I just discovered your channel! I remember this game like it was yesterday…….my daughter was born the previous day (Feb 6) and we all watched it in the hospital. Being from Manitoba and coming from a curling family, the last shot caused a cheer and we were asked to “keep it down”. Thanks for this - I can share the actual footage with my kid! You have a new subscriber - please keep them coming!

Incredible that the Hanna team won tie breaks to make the play-offs, then knocked off higher ranked teams to make the final—only to lose because of an unbelievable shot by Jones—I wonder how much Jenn considered hitting one of the open Manitoba stones instead of throwing the guard—my heart went out to her team for what must have been a devastating loss 😢

thank you so much for this

Thank you!!!!!

Great post

RIP C Jones

Hanna’s last shot should have been a freeze to her own stone

Jenn Hanna played the wrong shot in my view and I said it at the time. She wanted to guard her shot rock, which she did but in doing so set up the only shot JJ had (which makes an otherwise difficult shot somewhat easier because you’re totally committed to it). Another way to guard shot rock is to get 2nd shot. If JH had done that JJ would never have played this iconic shot!

Jenn Hanna played the wrong shot with her last rock in that 10th end. There’s a long standing axiom in curling. Sometimes the best guard is 2nd shot! Ontario was up by two. All Jenn Hanna needed to do was get 2nd shot and there was lots of room for 2nd shot to be played. Had she done that Jones doesn’t even consider playing her iconic last shot! in fact with Ontario lying two, Jones may not have had any shot to win! Manitoba didn’t win that game. Ontario lost it! There IS a difference!
