Four Sask. players named to Canada world junior hockey championship team

Berkly Catton, Brayden Yager, Caden Price and Tanner Howe were all named.
There has been one name that resonates in Toronto when it comes to CFL football. Michael (Pinball) Clemons.
The diminutive running back made highlight reel plays during his time winning Grey Cups in Toronto; then coached the Argonauts. He’s been an ambassador for the Argos and the Canadian Football League in Toronto, but he’s been in the shadows for the past little while.
And the Argos have never found a face of the franchise that got people to the park.
Clemons is now again the face of the franchise and that should be a good thing for a team that needs a person who can sell the team, have people believe in the brand and is recognizable.
And Clemons is generational. He’s spoken to so many Ontario students that know who Pinball Clemons is.
The move by the Argos is a good one on that side of marketing, but they need to win. Only one winning season in the last six years and only six wins in the last two.
Clemons is a great motivator, communicator and personality. Now we’ll find out if he can be a general manager.
