The Stampeders play their second consecutive road game on Saturday as they drop by Winnipeg’s Canad Inns Stadium to face the Blue Bombers. Kickoff is at 11 a.m. MDT.
You can catch all the action at the Stamps’ official road-game headquarters, Shark Club Deerfoot Meadows.
The Stamps (8-6) are coming off a 27-22 loss to the BC Lions at Vancouver’s BC Place. The Blue Bombers (4-10) claimed a 27-22 victory in Montreal on Thanksgiving Monday.
The Stamps faced the Bombers in Week 12 at McMahon Stadium, with Calgary claiming a 44-3 victory. This is scheduled to be the Red and White’s last visit to Winnipeg/Canad Inns Stadium as the Bombers are scheduled to move into a new facility in 2012. Calgary is 29-50 all time at the facility with a significant number of the losses coming in the 1970s and 1980s. Since 1993, Calgary is 11-8 in Winnipeg.
Last week, Nik Lewis surpassed the 1,000-yard mark in receiving for the season. It was the ninth time in his nine-year career Lewis has reached 1,000 yards. Only ex-Stamp Terry Vaughn (11) and Milt Stegall (10) have more 1,000-yard seasons and only Vaughn (11) has more consecutive seasons with 1,000 receiving yards
