RCMP say Michael "Pinball" Clemons will be getting his Grey Cup ring back after it was taken by a woman at B.C. Place Stadium during the Toronto Argonauts game against the Lions on Friday.
In his first training camp with the Vancouver Canucks, the veteran goalie never envisioned patrolling the crease for a team that already had a wealth of talent at his position just 15 months ago.
After the 57-year-old was hired as the franchise's 18th head coach in June, he hit the road to meet with members of a veteran core that will need to rebound in a big way following a miserable 2013-'14 campaign that ended with the Canucks missing the playoffs for the first time in six seasons.
Ricky Ray threw for two touchdowns as the Argonauts beat the B.C. Lions 40-23 in CFL action Friday night. Toronto made amends for a loss in Calgary last weekend, when they led by a wide margin early only to suffer a late loss.
The club missed the playoffs for the first time since 2007-08 last season, resulting in the dismissal of general manager Mike Gillis and head coach John Tortorella.
PENTICTON, B.C. - Hunter Shinkaruk has a second chance to make a first impression. The 19-year-old left-winger was selected by the Vancouver Canucks 24th overall at the 2013 draft when Mike Gillis was the team's general manager and John Tortorella was its head coach.
