The 2022 CanPL Preview
The Canadian Premier League is back to a full season with a balanced, weekly schedule and some positive off-field signs. Now it’s time to grow.
2022 CanPL Preview: Pacific FC
Pa-Modou Kah reshaped Pacific in just two years, in the middle of a pandemic. He’s a very good coach, but I think James Merriman is, too.
2022 CanPL Preview: Atlético Ottawa
Atlético Ottawa has managed to assemble a steady roster of Canadians in need of (another) chance, but also need to identify a core group to take them forward.
2022 CanPL Preview: Cavalry FC
Continuity is key for Cavalry, but how long can a team continue when it’s been close but never a champion?
2022 CanPL Preview: York United
York surprised everyone last year with a strong playoff showing. As a result, they fired the coach who got them there. Someone help me with the logic.
2022 CanPL Preview: Halifax Wanderers
Is this the year Wanderers finally break thirty goals? It’s up to Akeem Garcia to make that happen after a season to forget in 2021.
The Merchant Sailor 2021 CanPL Season Preview
The Canadian Premier League is back, in spite of a winter riddled with pandemic challenges and self-inflicted wounds. What really matters is that fans will be able to watch Canadian professional soccer live again.
Big Data: York Whatever 2021 Preview

Ten Years On: FC Edmonton 2021 Preview
FC Edmonton need something, anything, to spark life into the club on its tenth anniversary. Eric Newendorp and Alan Koch have been brought in to win, but there is a long road ahead.
