Inescapably Canadian Power Rankings: MLS Week 30/USL Week 28

Toronto FC has, yet to be mathematically eliminated from the MLS playoff chase, but this weekend’s loss to New York Red Bulls basically ended the meaningful part of their season. The Vancouver Whitecaps sit in eighth place in the Western Conference. The Montreal Impact are clinging to the sixth and final playoff spot in the East, but the team doesn’t control its destiny, because D.C. United, sitting in seventh, has two games in hand.

So, once again, we’re focusing on Canadians in USL (though Ottawa’s chances of making the playoffs took a major hit with a 4-0 loss to Louisville over the weekend).

Focusing on the good news: Kyle Bekker scored for NCFC in a 6-1 win over Atlanta United 2; Chris Nanco scored for Bethlehem Steel in a rout of TFCII and Zachary Ellis-Hayden found the net for Fresno, the Whitecaps’ USL affiliate.

Here are the rankings after the 30th week of MLS play/28th week of USL action:
