FC Edmonton coach Colin Miller was happy to get a point on the road in the club’s NASL opener. But he wants more — a lot more — out of the team’s three-game road trip to start the season.

In his NASL coaching debut, Colin Miller had to settle for a draw.

But midfielder Jose Lopez, whose name didn’t appear on the 23-man preliminary roster released last week, is on the final list of 20.

Instead, the Eddies chopped Torindo and are now in the marker for a third keeper. The team announced Tuesday that Torindo and Ramos had been waived.

Six members of the Vancouver Whitecaps Residency and five players from TFC Academy are featured on coach Sean Fleming’s pre-tournament roster ahead of the CONCACAF U-20 Championships.

“I just want to prove a point to myself and to the coach. I want to show that I can go out there and score goals. I can start, or I can come off the bench and contribute. I am not concerned about the age factor. Age is just a number.”
