Veteran Mark Nichols Joins Defending Canadian Champion Dunstone's Rink
Reigning Canadian curling champion Matt Dunstone has bolstered his Winnipeg-based team by signing veteran Mark Nichols at the second position ahead of the 2026-27 season, filling the void left by E.J. Harnden, who recently stepped away from full-time competitive curling. Nichols joins a core of Dunstone, third Colton Lott, and lead Ryan Harnden as the team sets its sights on defending their Brier title and returning to the World Championships, with Dunstone praising Nichols as one of the most accomplished and respected players in the game.
