Winnipeg 40....Toronto 31

Unusual game.  Neither team was impressive, but both scored plenty of points.  Trey Vaval returned two kicks for touchdowns.

Hamilton 28....Edmonton 24

The Elks almost won.  The Ticats scored a touchdown late to take the lead, and then the Elks receiver dropped a perfect pass in the goal area.
