Final Score: 28 Calgary 17 Hamilton.

Calgary clinched the first place in the West and will have a first round bye in the playoffs.

The game seems to be slow and the offense didn't start well. It was the special team lead by Charles Hughes (blocked field goal and recovered the ball) that woke Stampeders up. Sandro kicked a field goal after to make it 3-0.
Calgary then had a run TD and TD catch by Joffrey Reynolds in the 2nd period. Defense played well in the first 3 quarters but seems to let up after the 3rd quarter when they have the lead. Third string QB for Hamilton cames in and started throwing good football. Calgary scored a TD(Copeland) in the 3rd period.

Overall, I don't think the Stamps played their 100% in the game but we still got the win and the most important part was none of the Stamps got injured. I was actually getting scared there whenever Burris run the ball. I keep thinking about that innocent run play by Burris I believed it was last year and Zeke Moreno tackled him really badly.

Joffrey Reynold had a good game with 17 rush and 128 yards to increase his lead over Wes Cates in CFL rushing yards. Ken-Yon Rambo gained 78 yards to increase his leads over Geroy Simon in receiving yards. Burris got picked on twice but it's nothing to worry about. Hughes, Robede and Labinjo had a great game again. Miguel Robede is getting better and better as the season goes. He is showing he deserved that first round pick by Stamps a few years ago. Makes me wonder why the heck Higgins and Creehan never given this guy the chance. Mind you, i guess I have to ask the same question about Mike Labinjo as well.

Anyways, Stamps will play BC next at home. It is going to be a nothing game for the Stamps and I am sure we will see more of QB Nealy and Sankey next game. The game might be important for BC as they are still fighting for 2nd place in the West.

GOOD JOB STAMPS!!!
