ADAM CASEY May be the second to Brad Gushue…. what did you think
Casey was on the team’s bench during the HearingLife Tour Challenge and was already penciled in as Gushue’s fifth man for the upcoming Pan Continental Championships. The 35-year-old from P.E.I. threw second stones on Team Gushue from 2011-14 and represented Newfoundland and Labrador at the Brier all three seasons.
Casey would be a natural fit based on his past with Team Gushue at the position, however, he hasn’t played at the elite level since 2022 when he threw third for Jason Gunnlaugson. He’s also coming off of an arm injury but is expected to be good to go when the Pan Continental Championships begin at the end of the month in Lacombe, Alta.
“I know him well,” Gushue said when asked about Casey during the HearingLife Tour Challenge. “I really enjoy Adam and like being around him. A good asset to have on the team and certainly at a P.E.I. Slam to have a P.E.I. boy on the bench doesn’t hurt.”
