I enjoy watching her team curl but how exactly is she a firecracker? From seeing her in person on the ice and on TV, she is virtually expressionless and rarely displays much, if any, emotion.

I guess I must have missed something.

You may be right Misty1. Sigfridson showing signs of life would not be a bad thing.

For that, I'm happy for them. They certainly deserve the recognition. First in the points, and in the $$$.
