Overwhelmingly Canadian Power Rankings MLS Week 14/NASL Week 10/USL Week 11

John Smits: Leads Canadian USL players in minutes.

As long as The 11 has been tracking the minutes played by Canadians in North American pro soccer leagues, we have had a constant: That soccer games are 90 minutes long. We base our averages on the fact that a regulation soccer match is 90 minutes long.

But, thanks to Mother Nature, we have an anomaly. Over the weekend, in USL action, severe weather forced the game between TFCII and the Charlotte Independence to be stopped at the 72-minute mark. So, players who played a “full” match will only be credited with 72 minutes of playing time, not the full 90. Argh! This is not a big deal in the grand scheme of things, but to stat wonks this is the kind of thing that creates a series of questions. Do you pro-rate the minutes to account for the missed time? Do you create a disclaimer?

In this case, we simply credited the appropriate players with the appropriate minutes and shrugged our shoulders. It’s eighteen minutes of missed time — and the way that severe weather seems to impacting more and more games in North America, this likely won’t be the only time we’ll have to account for an abbreviated game.

With this being an international weekend, and the Copa America kicking off, there wasn’t a lot of movement on the MLS/NASL chart.
