Inescapably Canadian Power Rankings: MLS Week 31/USL Week 29

Samuel Piette

With the MLS ad USL seasons winding down, it’s almost impossible to see any other players outpacing Samuel Piette (MLS) and Jordan Schweitzer (USL) as their respective leagues’ leaders in minutes played by Canadians. Both continued to hold commanding leads.

In terms of clutch performances, Karl Ouimette scored for Indy Eleven in a win over the Tampa Bay Rowdies, and Jordan Hamilton found the net in a TFCII win over Skylar Thomas and his Charleston Battery mates.

But standout performance of the weeks goes to NCFC’s Kyle Bekker, who scored twice against Richmond over the weekend; a vital performance for a team that’s in a real fight for playoff position.

Here are the rankings after the 31st week of MLS play/29th week of USL action:
