Overwhelmingly Canadian Power Rankings MLS Week 18/NASL Week 13/USL Week 16

The Vancouver Whitecaps announced the signing of Canadian defender David Edgar on Monday, and that might help stop a recent slide when it comes to the minutes the team is giving to Canadian players.

In Saturday’s 2-2 draw with Colorado, the Whitecaps didn’t have a Canadian in the starting lineup, and didn’t have a Canadian come off the bench, either. That’s not the only depressing news when it comes to minutes played by Canadians in the major North American leagues. The Montreal Impact only had three minutes played by a Canadian this past weekend — Patrice Bernier in a substitute role.

On the USL side, it’s worth noting that TFCII has played 20 games, more than any other team in the league — so keep that in mind when looking at the rankings of individual players.

And it’s worth noting that Mackenzie Pridham is becoming a super-sub for the Sacramento Republic. This past weekend, Pridham scored another goal after coming off the bench. He’s played only 176 minutes this season, but has a couple of goals.
