Als top TSN Power Rankings
With their slim 41-38 win over the visiting Hamilton Tiger-Cats, the Montreal Alouettes maintained their normal spot atop the TSN CFL Power Rankings.
Following the Als in second place are the Saskatchewan Roughriders who fought to a 44-44 tie with the defending champions Calgary Stampeders who occupy the third spot.
The Stamps leapfrogged the BC Lions who despite staging a comeback over Winnipeg Blue Bombers, fell to fourth in the rankings.
Rounding out the rest of the list are the Ticats in fifth, the Bombers in sixth, the Edmonton Eskimos in seventh and the Toronto Argonauts in the eighth and final spot.

Westwood back in Winnipeg
After a year-long hiatus from the Winnipeg Blue Bombers and the CFL, kicker Troy Westwood is back.
After being signed to the practice roster on Monday, Westwood was back at practice on Tuesday, wearing his usual one barred helmet.
“I was real nervous all day yesterday and before I got here, “ Westwood told CTV. “When I got here after five minutes of feeling like a stranger in a strange land, I just felt like I was home…it felt really comfortable.”
Prior to being released by the Bombers in 2008, Westwood enjoyed 17 seasons in the CFL – all in Winnipeg.
The 42-year old holds the CFL record for best career field goal percentage in the playoffs at 85.7.
