The Hamilton Tiger-Cats would be forgiven if they entered this year with the team they finished with last season. Stitched Miami Jerseys . The Henry Burris-led squad finished second in the East Division before advancing to the Grey Cup where they ultimately fell to the home field advantage wielding Saskatchewan Roughriders. For a team that finished 6-12 the previous year, and hadnt made a Grey Cup appearance since winning the trophy in 1999, that qualifies as progress, a significant amount. And more than that, you could argue the team was on the cusp of greatness, a couple tweaks away from finishing the job in 2014. But the Ticats opted against trotting out the same lineup – or a very similar one at least – to take another shot this season. Instead they went for a big shakeup at a key position, one that may lead to some immediate regression, but that could pay off handsomely in the future. Gone is Burris, one of the teams leaders the past two years, and his league-leading stats. After throwing for 10,292 yards and 67 touchdowns the past two years with the Ticats, head coach and general manager Kent Austin allowed Burris to leave in free agency where he signed with the Ottawa Redblacks. The team opted instead for promising youngster Zach Collaros, who proved he more than belonged in the league – and may offer a lot more with extended play – with the Toronto Argonauts last year while Ricky Ray was sidelined with a shoulder injury. Despite Burris taking the Ticats to the peak of the mountain last year, theres a perception hes maybe not the guy to get a team over the mountain, and the Ticats decided to cut bait and build with a quarterback they feel more confident in. For all Collaros heroics filling in and keeping the Argos in contention last season, hes still a young quarterback with just 298 CFL passing attempts to his name. While the Ticats are convinced theyre in for big things with Collaros at QB, and theyre not the only ones as evident by the mini bidding war that went on to secure his services, some growing pains should still be expected with a 26-year-old pivot, especially one learning a new offence. So while Burris may have been the better option for Hamiltons prospects in 2014, considering his age and difficulty winning the big one, going with Collaros upward trending career is the smarter move for ultimate success. Hamilton hopes theyre taking one step back to make two steps forward. This reasonability of this move is buoyed by the general strength of the roster surrounding Collaros. Hell be in the backfield with one of the most exciting running backs in the league in CJ Gable, who finished fourth in the league in rushing with 782 yards but was the clear frontrunner in highlight reel spin-o-ramas frequently seen on Sportcentre Honour Rolls. And the Ticats already robust receiving corps added more talent this off-season. Joining Andy Fantuz, Bakari Grant, and Greg Ellingson will be Cary Koch, an underrated threat who spent the first four years of his CFL career split between Saskatchewan and Edmonton, really breaking out with the Eskimos the past two years. And while the addition isnt likely to help Collaros directly, Craig Butler joins an improving defensive unit. Notes Expansion Draft The Tiger-Cats got off easy in the first two rounds of the expansion draft before a surprise pick in the third. Backup running back Chevon Walker and FB John Delahunt were grabbed in Round 1 and 2 before Marwan Hage, surprisingly still available, was taken by the Ottawa Redblacks in the third round. It was clear the Ticats were moving on from Hage after he was left available in the final round of the draft. Hage Retires Hages time in Ottawa wasnt lasting, and the affable offensive lineman did the right thing in returning to Hamilton to retire. It was as good an ending to a solid 10-year career that Tiger-Cats fans could have hoped for, not having to see him in another teams colours. Free Agency Its hard to argue the Ticats werent the winners of free agency after landing their quarterback of the present and future in Collaros, another weapon in the receiving corps in Cary Koch, a decent offensive line replacement in Steve Myddleton, front seven defensive help in Ted Laurent and Abraham Kromah, and a solid Canadian safety in Craig Butler. CFL Draft The Tiger-Cats took a chance on their second of two first round picks and paid for it when Manitoba defensive lineman Evan Gill, a player they traded up for, decided he would return to school and try his luck at an NFL tryout next season. Gill entered the draft a bit of a risk with a quad injury but the Ticats selected him anyway, perhaps opting for the long play. The team also selected Western LB Beau Landry, one pick before Gill in the first round, who later signed with the team. After the first, Hamilton didnt make another pick until the fifth round, taking Toronto LB Christopher Johnson. The Ticats wrapped the draft up with sixth-round defensive linemen Mathieu Girard (Montreal) and Stephen Mawa (UBC), and seventh-round defensive lineman Martin Pesek from Acadia. Tim Hortons Field After a successful campaign at the University of Guelph last season, the Ticats return home to Hamilton for 2014, to the same location Ivor Wynne Stadium once stood.

Ibrahimovic put PSG ahead when he got in front of his marker to neatly flick in Lucass cross in the 59th minute. New signing Yohan Cabaye came on as a second-half substitute and headed Ezequiel Lavezzis cross against the post in the 87th. Moments later, Lucas set up another goal from the right when fellow countryman Alex turned in his corner with a strikers finish. Reggie Wayne College Jersey . Kerber will next play Estonias Kaia Kanepi, who beat American qualifier Victoria Duval 6-1, 6-3. In other first-round matches, Lucie Safarova beat 2010 French Open champion Francesca Schiavone 6-4, 6-4 and American Bethanie Mattek-Sands had a 6-4, 6-3 win over Canadas Eugenie Bouchard. http://www.cheapmiamijerseys.com/ . They named Mark Washington as their defensive co-ordinator on Thursday and appear to be closing in on an offensive co-ordinator.Got a question on rule clarification, comments on rule enforcements or some memorable NHL stories? Kerry wants to answer your emails at cmonref@tsn.ca. Hi Kerry, A question on kicking the puck in. You probably saw the Edmonton game against Vancouver where in the dying seconds, David Perron clearly kicked it towards the net. Now I know the rule is if you kick it and it deflects in off the goalie, it doesnt count. However, as it clearly shows in the reply, a few inches before it got to the goal line, Miller reaches back and accidentally pushes it into his own net. Isnt that considered an own goal as before it deflected off Miller to go past the goal line, Miller put it in his own net? Im not a fan of either team but shouldnt that have been a goal? If he didnt reach back, it would have deflected off him from the kick (or go in directly if it didnt deflect off him) and be a clear NO GOAL. Am I missing something? Thanks, Max Max: The situations where a legal goal can be scored following a distinct kicking motion of the puck by an attacking player are minimal and precise. Rule 49.2 states that a goal cannot be scored by an attacking player who kicks a puck that deflects into the net off any player, goalkeeper or official. The rule also provides some clarification with regard to deflections following a kicked puck that enters the goal: i) A kicked puck that deflects off the body of any player of either team (including goalkeeper) shall be ruled no goal. ii) A kicked puck that deflects off the stick of any player (excluding the goalkeepers stick) shall be ruled a good goal. iii) A goal will be allowed when an attacking player kicks the puck and the puck deflects off his own stick and then into the net. iv) A goaal will be allowed when a puck enters the goal after deflecting off an attacking players skate or deflects off his skate while he is in the process of stopping (NEW).

If David Perron had gotten his stick on the puck prior to it crossing the goal line or if the puck had deflected off any players stick (excluding the goalkeeper) the Edmonton Oilers would have been credited with a legal goal. What must be considered on this play and in direct answer to your question Max, is the difference between a deflection and more specifically possession and control of the puck. Possession is described in rule 56 (interference) as the last player to touch the puck, other than the goalkeeper. Any attempt by the goalkeeper to make a save is therefore not deemed possession of the puck. Possession and control of the puck are synonymous as referenced in rule 57 (tripping) and as it pertains to the potential award of a penalty shot. This rule states, Control of the puck means the act of propelling the puck with the stick, hand or feet. It is thought of as a deliberate act of controlling the puck. Once Perron used a distinct kicking motion to propel the puck toward the net and Ryan Miller attempted to make a save, the goalies action constitutes a deflected puck off Millers blocker. As stated in the rule, no goal can be scored in this situation. I have to believe that the review took an extended period of time to ensure that the puck was not touched by Perrons stick or it did not perhaps deflect off the stick of any other player with the exception of Millers goal stick. Referee Gord Dwyer made the correct ruling on the ice to disallow the goal. The refs decision was subsequently confirmed through the video review process.
