I thought Randle was going to try for the NFL, I guess the Bombers were willing to offer him enough money to keep him in the CFL.

Huff doesn't spend much in free agency, he builds his teams through the draft and by finding gems in the free agent college ranks.

I think he will maybe sign an O-lineman, and some secondary depth.

A shutdown DB would be nice though, we got torched a few times last year. Or sign Shea Emry and move Keon Raymond back to DB.

Mayo, Simpson and Emry would be unreal.

Have a bad feeling the Riders are gonna sign Emry though...

I don't get the two trades by Hufnagel. He gave up a player and a late draft pick just to move up a little in draft. Is he just trying to get rid of those guys due to salary cap? I know Justin Phillips is not really a big loss since he's been injured a lot. Randle on the other hand is looking for more money or he might make it in the NFL anyways. I am not questioning Huf's decision, i am just puzzled for what we get in return.

Sounds like a case of Randal going after money, and Huff probably losing him to FA.

So really Huff moves up a couple spots for a player he was going to lose either way.

yup thats it exactly...he was a UFA so he managed to leverage that into a better draft position. In regard to Phillips he probably has a better plan in place.

The Calgary Stampeders are pleased to announce their schedule for the 2014 Canadian Football League season.

The 18-game regular season gets under way with the home-opener at McMahon Stadium on Saturday, June 28, when the Montreal Alouettes come calling.

The BC Lions make two regular-season visits to McMahon while the Saskatchewan Roughriders, Edmonton Eskimos, Winnipeg Blue Bombers, Hamilton Tiger-Cats, Toronto Argonauts, Alouettes as well as the expansion Ottawa Redblacks each come to town once.

Calgary’s home dates during the regular season include three Fridays and five Saturdays as well as the traditional Labour Day Monday matchup. There are four afternoon contests on the slate at McMahon including three games that kick off at 2:30 p.m. or earlier.

The Stamps tune up for the regular season and give Calgary fans their first look at the 2014 squad on Saturday, June 14 when they face the Winnipeg Blue Bombers in a pre-season contest at McMahon Stadium.

A longtime traditional rival of the Stampeders, the Bombers return to the West Division in 2014

The regular season home-opener will be Saturday, June 28 at McMahon against Montreal

The Redblacks — led by former Stamps QB Henry Burris — make their first visit to McMahon on Saturday, Aug. 9

The Red and White will make their first visit to new stadiums in Hamilton on Aug. 16 and in Ottawa on Aug. 24

The Labour Day Classic, one of the great CFL traditions, will be played on Monday, Sept. 1 against the Edmonton Eskimos in a 2:30 p.m. kickoff

The Labour Day return game at Edmonton’s Commonwealth Stadium, which has traditionally been played on Fridays, will this year be held on Saturday, Sept. 6

The annual PinkPower game to help raise awareness and funds for the battle against women’s cancers will be played at McMahon Stadium on Friday, Oct. 24 when Saskatchewan makes its only visit of the season

Division rivalries are highlighted late in the season as the Stamps will face West teams in their final six games

Source tells me free-agent receiver Anthony Parker and his agent are trying to get a deal done with the Stamps. #CFLFA14 #CFL

Lots of Friday night doubleheaders this year; makes sense if the game is in BC but I'm not sure I like the 8:00 start times in Calgary (makes it hard to take kids).

Unless there are injuries, it might be tough to get playing time this year...

Yeah it'll be tough for sure if the Stamps remain healthy. But he is a non-import so it will help the ratio and having Canadian depth is always a good thing. Forzani sounds like he could be done with his bad ankle, so we will atleast have Jabari Arthur, Sinopoli, Bauman, Parker as Canadians at the position.

He was a top pick in the draft, might as well keep him around if he wants to be here.

I could see Lumsden on the practice roster for the Stamps.
