Around the CFL: New-look Stampeders making strides after rare playoff miss

1 week ago | sportsnet.ca | Mike Koreen

It's too early to say if the Calgary Stampeders are back on the right track, but there is a feeling of optimism around the team. With a new quarterback (Vernon Adams Jr.) and a revamped coaching staff under head coach/GM Dave Dickenson, the Stamps are off to a 2-0 start after two sour seasons. "Just keep stacking good quality performances early in the year," Dickenson told reporters after a win in Toronto over the reigning Grey Cup champion Argonauts last week.

The No. 2-seeded Gauff, who won the 2023 U.S. Open and was the runner-up in Paris in 2022, has been engaging in a bit of back-and-forth with another American and Roland-Garros quarterfinalist, Frances Tiafoe, over the equipment blunder.

The more things change, the more they stay the same in the CFL's West Division. While the CFL has as much off-season player and coaching movement as any league, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers have been a true model of consistency. The Blue Bombers have represented the West in the past five Grey Cups. They'll become the first CFL team to go to six straight title games since the dynastic Edmonton run from 1977-82 if they qualify for this year's championship at home in Winnipeg.

The 2005 Memorial Cup is remembered as perhaps the best national junior hockey championship tournament in the history of the event. Twenty years after that memorable tournament during an NHL lockout, we have another stellar Memorial Cup field — and even a couple of ties to '05.
