TORONTO — We open Week 17 on Friday night with a strong double header.
The Edmonton Elks seek revenge after their loss at home last week to the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. The Bombers have won six in a row now and promise to be inhospitable hosts at Princess Auto Stadium. A Bombers’ win will secure them a playoff berth for the eighth straight season, while the Elks are desperate to keep their playoff hopes alive. A win in Winnipeg would go a long way on that front.
