There's a very good chance we'll see an Eastern team cross over to the West for the first time this year.
Also, as of Friday, it's been a year since any of the Esks, Oilers, or Oil Kings defeated a Calgary team in a regular season game.

Welcome to an 8 team league. Thing is that as bad as the Eskimos and Lions have been all they have to do is beat Winnipeg on their H2H games and go on a little streak and they will still get in. As bad as the Eskimos and Lions looked this week, the Bombers also laid a big stinker as well and I'm not ready to say any 2-5 is a lock to make the postseason.
