Overwhelmingly Canadian Power Rankings: MLS Week 5/NASL Week 1/USL Week 2

NASL kicked off its season this weekend, and it gives us a chance to see where Canadian appearances stand compared to last season at this time.

In 2015, when we finished Week 5 of the MLS season and Week 1 of the NASL season, 24 Canadians had seen the field for clubs in either of those leagues. A total of 11 clubs (four of them hailing from NASL) had given time to a Canadian.

Where do we stand this year? This year, at the same stage of the MLS and NASL seasons, 24 Canadians on 10 different teams have got minutes. So, if there is a difference between 2015 and 2016, it’s statistically insignificant.

If you notice any errors or omissions, especially on the USL side, please make a comment on what needs to be addressed.
