Intrinsically Canadian Power Rankings: MLS Week 8/NASL Week 5/USL Week 5 By Steven Sandor Posted on April 24, 2017 Comments Off on Intrinsically Canadian Power Rankings: MLS Week 8/NASL Week 5/USL Week 5 0 885 Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Anthony Jackson-Hamel So, Anthony Jackson-Hamel has played just 36 minutes for the Montreal Impact so far in 2017. He has three goals. That’s a return of a goal every 12 minutes. What does this mean? That Anthony Jackson-Hamel is the greatest player to ever play in MLS. Take your Landon Donovans and Dwayne De Rosarios and Jaime Morenos and Chris Wondolowskis … and forget about them! A goal every 12 minutes? Heck, if Jackson-Hamel would actually start a game and get a full 90 minutes in, he’d get seven or eight goals. Woo-hoo! OK, the tongue is planted in the cheek. But, on a more serious note, you can’t dispute that Jackson-Hamel hasn’t changed games once he’s been introduced. He scored a match-winner against Atlanta two weekends ago. This past weekend, he scored twice as the Impact rallied from a 3-0 deficit to come back and draw the hapless Philadelphia Union. Maybe this is a sign that, well, you know, Jackson-Hamel is worthy of a start? Jackson-Hamel headlined what was a good week for Canadians in the various North American pro leagues. Orlando City, also known as “Canada FC South,” (OK, I just made that up — the team isn’t known by that nickname, though it should be) got two goals from Cyle Larin in a win over NYCFC. Then, the B team got two goals from Richie Laryea. It seems to be a rule that only Canadians are allowed to score for the MLS side and for the B team.
