FC Edmonton got off to yet another poor start to a match, and the Eddies dug themselves a hole they couldn’t find a way out of.

So, as MLS looks to tweaking or making major changes to the international rule as it relates to Canadians, the Canadian Soccer Association and the league need to set a goal that’s more cut-and-dried than giving more roster spots or even, gasp, dropping the Canadians-as-internationals-on-American-teams designation. Someone needs to write down a number. And that number would be a ballpark average of first-team minutes for Canadians.

There are five Canadian players making US$35,125 this season, while eight more are on the books for base salaries of $46,500 each.

The Impact is going to need its own version of the "Miracle In Montreal" if it's going to finally defeat Toronto FC in an Amway Canadian Championship series.

The games from the Walt Disney World Classic are archived on YouTube, so that offers the chance to not have to spend a prime Saturday afternoon watching any Toronto FC and Montreal’s preseason matches.

With just one trialist in camp, it allows TFC more time to break in draft prospects like Emery Welshman and Kyle Bekker; and also give Supplemental Draft Picks like Ashton Bennett more of a fair shake. And it creates more room for Academy players to display they're ready to make the jump.

Better late than never for Drew Beckie.

Of the 54 players, only two were born in Canada. And of those two, only Kyle Bekker will likely ever play for Canada.
