“It gave me the opportunity to keep playing for (the Eskimos) and helping them out,” Gable said of the Oct. 2 trade from Hamilton. The running back accomplished that on Sunday when he had 16 carries for 107 yards and two touchdowns as the Eskimos defeated the Winnipeg Blue Bombers 39-32 in the CFL West Division semifinal. Gable wants to let his actions show the Edmonton Eskimos how thankful he is that they traded for him last month. Gable was a force in scoring both his TDs from 15 yards out. On the first one, he barrelled his way through Winnipeg defence and was pushed the final yard or two by his Eskimos teammates.
