Veteran Roughriders quarterback Harris looking for first Grey Cup win as a starter
WINNIPEG —Saskatchewan Roughriders quarterback Trevor Harris was one of the top quarterbacks in the CFL this season — at the ripe old age of 39.
But the Waldo, Ohio, native is not talking about the possibility of this Sunday’s Grey Cup Game against the Montreal Alouettes being his last hurrah.Instead, Harris relishes the idea of winning Lord Grey’s grail with his fifth CFL team, one that he has grown to love.
“Man, it sure would be awesome,” Harris said Tuesda -
Alouettes quarterback Alexander looks to extend his unbeaten streak at Grey Cup
WINNIPEG — Davis Alexander took his offensive linemen out for dinner after the Montreal Alouettes arrived in Winnipeg for Sunday’s Grey Cup game against the Saskatchewan Roughriders.
The big men tasked with protecting the injured quarterback made sure he didn’t feel too much pain in his wallet.
“We were gentle with him. We didn’t have any 30-ounce steaks or nothing like that,” Alouettes guard Pier-Olivier Lestage said.
Alexander is also being handled with care -
CFL head coaches Maas, Mace not interested in adding GM duties to job descriptions
WINNIPEG — It has become a thing again in the CFL, but neither Jason Maas nor Corey Mace have any interest in adding general manager duties to their CFL resumes.
Last week, the Ottawa Redblacks named Ryan Dinwiddie as their head coach and GM. Dinwiddie went to the Canadian capital after five seasons — and two Grey Cup wins — as the Toronto Argonauts' head coach.
Dinwiddie joined Dave Dickenson of the Calgary Stampeders as the only CFL officials to hold both titles. But Maas, th -

TORONTO — Natalie Spooner was happy to shed the knee brace when the time came after getting some advice from Edmonton Oilers forward Zach Hyman.
The Toronto Sceptres forward crossed paths with the NHLer at Hockey Canada's Olympic orientation camp in late August that brought together players from the men's, women's and paralympic teams.
"I was talking to Zach Hyman because I'd heard how he had the same surgery as me," Spooner told reporters at the Sceptres' opening day of training camp. "An -

"For all the people that lost their lives — or who sometimes came back, but not whole as a person.”
The veteran spent 40 years in the Armed Forces, also deploying in the Congo and Bosnia. He and his comrade were both se -
Montreal’s Jason Maas, Saskatchewan’s Corey Mace lead their teams into Grey Cup
WINNIPEG — Jason Maas and Corey Mace have their teams in the Grey Cup, but say they haven't done it alone.

When Oren Weisfeld set out to write about the story of Canada’s national men’s basketball team, he wasn’t sure how many of the sport’s biggest names would agree to talk.

Oilers GM Stan Bowman on Edmonton’s scuffling start: ‘We’re just not clicking’
TORONTO — Stan Bowman smirked when the conversation shifted to goaltending.
The Edmonton Oilers general manager has been in the job just under 16 months. He knows the crease — especially in a Canadian market — is always a hot topic.
And it's particularly scalding right now in Alberta's capital.
Stuart Skinner has allowed 11 goals over his last three starts, including four in Saturday's embarrassing 9-1 home loss to the Colorado Avalanche before getting pulled.

Calgary-born Major League Soccer referee Drew Fischer wins award second year in a row
EDMONTON — Calgary-born Drew Fischer’s story of how he became a soccer referee is a classic one.
Similarly to many other professional arbiters of the game, he wanted to be a striker.
"But I was a much better referee than I ever was a player," the 45-year-old said with a chuckle in an interview. "You'd be hard pressed to find referees who didn't play at some point."
He said he just couldn't get the footing right but in the years that followed found his calling as a referee.
