Roy Finch closed in on franchise history and the Calgary Stampeders got a big assist from their defence in a 39-18 win over the Edmonton Eskimos on Labour Day Monday. Calgary's harassment of Edmonton quarterback Mike Reilly for three quarters spotted the Stampeders a 30-point lead. Calgary (8-1-1) gained some separation atop the CFL's West Division as the Eskimos dropped into a tie for second with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers at 7-3. With previous returns of 97 and 103 yards for touchdowns, Finch is tied with William Hampton (1999) for the most in a Stampeders season at three. Finch ran an 85-yard punt back to score in last year's Labour Day game.
