    More evidence that the recent move CFL move to call just about any contact on a receiver has worked it's way into the offensive schemes. To paraphrase Bo, "we knew we had three scenarios out of four that worked in our favour. Completion, penalty call, incompletion vs. a pic." Given the soft penalty calls in the fourth quarter, it would have been an outrageous outcome if a penalty was called. Just ask Hamilton in 2013. I still think penalties are still an issue to be addressed. It's a given to both teams in a Stanley Cup Final, you could sever a limb in the third period/overtime without a call being made.

    It was reported early in the season that Calgary had designed plays at drawing PI calls. And I think that's exactly what they were hoping for there.
