The Calgary Stampeders put on a highlight show against the Edmonton Elks on Wednesday.
They scored on offense, defense, and in a spectacular manner on special teams.
Peyton Logan corrals the missed field goal deep in the end zone and takes off rather than conceding a rouge, which would have given Edmonton one point.
One-hundred and twenty-two yards later Logan’s decision proved successful.

And that opened the floodgates en route to Calgary’s 49-6 victory over Edmonton.

The rain actually delayed the game for an hour.
In case you were wondering the 122-yard return of the missed field goal was not a CFL record.
- 131 – Boyd Carter/Dave Mann (1958) (Carter for 15 yards, then lateral to Mann for 116 yards and TD)
- 130 – Ken Hinton (1977)
There has been a quartet of 129-yard returns. They were by Saskatchewan’s Tristan Jackson in 2012 among others.
