MONTREAL -- Backup quarterback Kevin Glenn and quarterback-turned-receiver Brad Sinopoli had a lot to smile about after leading the Calgary Stampeders to victory. Glenn, filling in for the injured Drew Tate, passed for 268 yards and hit Nik Lewis for a touchdown pass. Sinopoli made five grabs in his debut as a receiver as the Stampeders downed the struggling Montreal Alouettes 22-14 on Friday night. The Montreal defence did well to hold Calgary mainly to field goals, but even there, Rene Parades went 5-for-5 to stretch his string of successful boots to 25, the third longest in CFL history. "It was a gutsy effort," said Calgary coach John Hufnagel. "I thought Kevin played a heck of a game. "He extended plays and moved the ball down the field." And the Stampeders (2-1) and Alouettes (1-2) get to do it all over again when they complete a back-to-back series next Saturday in Calgary. The Alouettes were marginally better than in their 19-11 loss last week to Winnipeg, but still laboured to move the ball after the opening drive, which ended with Anthony Calvillos TD pass to Brandon London. Their only other score came late in the game on a punt block and recovery by defensive back Ed Gainey. The loss was extra painful as veteran guard Scott Flory left in the third quarter with what appeared to be a serious biceps injury and did not return. Montreal had placed their other starting guard, Andrew Woodruff, on the nine-game disabled list earlier in the day, reportedly with a concussion. "Were trying to improve but weve got to get our act together," said Calvillo, who completed 22 of 36 passes for 205 yards. "We just lost two (in a row) at home and I cant remember the last time we did that (September 2006). "Its an improvement from last week, but weve got a long way to go." The Alouettes are used to winning, especially at home. But they are struggling to find their offensive game under a new coaching staff led by Dan Hawkins, who had no pro coaching experience when he succeeded Marc Trestman. The defence has been mostly solid, and the special teams are better than last years squad, whch at least keeps the scores close. The offence did a better job of preventing sacks and letting Calvillo throw the ball, and the running game was somewhat better, but there were far too many two-and-outs. Montreal had possession for only 23:42 compared to 36:18 for Calgary. "Of course Im upset, being in this locker room and seeing the guys on defence and special teams and with us (the offence) just devastated," Calvillo said. "The defence say they have our back, and we have to contribute more. We just have to." Glenn was good on 22 of 28 passes, including six to Lewis and five to Sinopoli, for 81 yards each. Jon Cornish carried 18 times for 90 yards. Sinopoli, whose performance included a spectacular one-handed catch for 42 yards in the third quarter, did his best to make it in the CFL it as a Canadian quarterback until this season. His future is now as a receiver. And he certainly looks up to the task. "Ive always had confidence in myself and I guess it was matter if proving it when I got my opportunity," he said. "I made mistakes like anyone would, but I want to learn from those and hopefully go up from here." "Hes catching balls in the dark part of the field, fighting for yards, and he extended drives," said Hufnagel. "So I was very pleased with Brad." Lewis caught his 63rd TD pass to move into second place in Stampeders history behind Tom Forzani. The Alouettes looked their old selves as they scored on their first possession, marching 81 yards on 11 plays capped by Calvillos 19-yard TD pass to London 7:50 into the game. They didnt get another first down until late in the half, while Glenn led drives topped by Paredes field goals of 20 and 22 yards. Another drive aided by a long pass interference call ended with Glenns nine-yard TD pass to Lewis, which was tipped at the line and dropped into the veteran receivers hands. It gave Calgary the 13-7 halftime lead. Paredes boots of 18 and 39 yards were the only scoring in the second half until Gainey blocked a Rob Maver punt and ran it in from 38 yards with 3:48 left in the game, which finally got the 23,184 at Percival Molson Stadium on their feet. But two late possessions stalled and Parades added another from 39 yards in the final minute. Since their return to Montreal in 1996, the Alouettes have only lost their first two home games of a season twice, in 1996 and 2007. Calvillo threw a TD pass in a 20th straight game, one short of his personal best, and he passed the 79,000-yard mark in career passing yards, stretching his own record. The Stampeders lost linebacker Malik Jackson to an injury in the first quarter.

With a few exceptions, the starters from the team that lost in the Grey Cup final to the host Toronto Argonauts in 2012 remained in red and white for 2013. "As far as our overall roster is concerned, Im pleased with our depth," head coach and general manager John Hufnagel said Tuesday. Pre-camp buzz has been about starting quarterback Drew Tates durability and whether veteran backup Kevin Glenn will have to step into the breach again this year. Hufnagel has declared Tate his starter for this season. Where training camp gets interesting for the coach is how a couple of Albertan behemoths battling for offensive line jobs might impact his ratio of import and non-import players. Medicine Hats Dan Federkeil is attempting to revive a football career that includes four seasons with the NFLs Indianapolis Colts and a Super Bowl ring in 2006. Repeated concussions forced him into retirement in 2009 and the 29-year-old hasnt played a game since then. Federkeil, six foot six and 290 pounds, has been cleared to play again. The Stampeders acquired his rights from the Toronto Argonauts, who drafted him back in 2006. Spencer Wilson was born in Toronto, but went to high school in Calgary. The six-foot-seven, 325-pounder played junior football for the Calgary Colts, while Federkeil played university ball for the Calgary Dinos. Wilson, 25, earned his first start for the Stampeders last August, but spent the last five games of the season on the injured list. "This is a big training camp for Spencer Wilson, a big training camp for Dan Federkeil," Hufnagel said. "First of all for Dan to get back on the field and to survive, but also for Spencer. Hes going to be given every opportunity to win that job and well see how it turns out. "When training camp is completed, what is our ratio on our football team? I dont make those decisions. The players will make those decisions on the field, but I do know we have options." Rookie camp starts Thursday at McMahon Stadium. The club announced Tuesday that import defensive lineman Marvin Booker and offensive linemate Leonardo Bates have been added to rookie camp.dddddddddddd Hufnagel also said "an agreement in principle" had been reached with offensive lineman Brett Jones of Weyburn, Sask., and he too is expected at rookie camp. Jones was one of Calgarys two second-round picks in this years college draft. He would be the fifth player from the 2013 draft class to get under contract with the club. There are few openings on Calgarys defence, but defensive end Stevie Baggs is another veteran looking for a second life in the CFL. The 31-year-old from Fort Lauderdale, Fla., terrorized CFL quarterbacks in 2009 when he was a Saskatchewan Roughrider. Baggs played in just one game for Calgary last season because of a quadriceps injury, but Hufnagel invited the man with a big personality back. "Lord knows how hard hes worked in the off-season," Hufnagel said, adding that Baggs will have Kevin Dixon and Cordarro Law for competition at defensive end. The Stampeders acquired non-import defensive tackle Etienne Legare from Edmonton earlier this month. The Saint-Raymond, Que., athlete is recovering from off-season shoulder surgery. Hufnagel didnt know if Legare would be ready for the season opener June 28 versus the B.C. Lions. The departure of Romby Bryant, the retirement of Arjei Franklin and the ankle injury and subsequent surgery that will keep Canadian Johnny Forzani out of the lineup for some time creates career advancement opportunity at receiver for someone like Vancouvers Anthony Parker. The former Calgary Dino and son of a former Stampeder of the same name had a promising rookie season in 2011, but was on and off the field in 2012 because of a concussion and other injuries. "This is Anthonys third year and he knows he needs to stay healthy and when he gets his opportunity, to stay on the field," Hufnagel said. "Im not disappointed with Anthony when hes been on the field. Hes a great contributor to the offence when hes had opportunities to make plays for us, hes done that. Special teams, hes performed admirably on special teams, which our Canadian receivers have to do." Calgary hosts the Lions in an exhibition game June 14 before another pre-season game June 20 in Saskatchewan. ' ' '
