Friday night’s pre-season victory over the Calgary Stampeders certainly answered a few questions, namely at the quarterback position where rookie Grant Kraemer led the fourth quarter comeback with two touchdown drives in the final minutes. The Lions will return to practice on Monday before opening up the regular season on Saturday, June 15th against the Winnipeg Blue Bombers at BC Place.
