As you probably know, SB Nation and Vox Media announced they were ending their relationship with most MLS and NHL blogs back in February.

Matt Blewett-USA TODAY Sports For a third straight match, the Vancouver Whitecaps earned a single point with a 1-1 draw in Minnesota on Saturday night. We break down the performances in the latest report card. Saturday night in Minnesota, the Vancouver Whitecaps played out a 1-1 draw against a depleted Minnesota United side that was without seven regular starters. While the Whitecaps controlled the tempo for most of the match and overall played some pretty attractive attacking football, some of the same looming problems with this team remained. Namely, the Whitecaps continue to struggle finish ..read more

Coffee with the Caps, Monday March 27

Matt Blewett-USA TODAY Sports Good Monday morning Caps fans, hope you all had a relaxing weekend and are getting back in the groove ahead of whatever this week has in store. In my non-soccer life, I am also a journalist and there exists a concept of the Friday afternoon news dump. The Caps over the years have become experts at burying bad news on Friday and, well, they got another whopper in this week. Nikos Overheul departed the Caps as head of player recruitment on Friday, a move that was apparently mutual in nature and, almost certainly, was not unrelated to the anemic start to the season i ..read more

Matt Blewett-USA TODAY Sports Whitecaps Draw at the Death Things are starting to look a little frustrating recently for the Vancouver Whitecaps, Champions League success aside. With no wins in the league after four games, the goodwill of Vanni Sartini is starting to run out. The tactics are stale, the play uninspiring, and there looks to be no clear direction to where the team is going. Coming into the match with Minnesota this looked to be the same case. With some players taking their time in getting going, and a DP striker now out for the forseeable future, the situation was looking a little ..read more

Gary A. Vasquez-USA TODAY Sports The Whitecaps are in the land of a thousand lakes to take on the Loons. Welcome back, everyone. The Vancouver Whitecaps are out on the road this weekend taking on Minnesota United. A big story for both teams this weekend is international call-ups, especially for the Loons, as they will be missing 7 regular starters heading into this one. For the Whitecaps, they will be without the services of Andres Cubas and Javain Brown. As an additional note, obviously Sergio Cordova is out for a while with injury, but Deiber Caicedo is back in the team and could see his fir ..read more

Anne-Marie Sorvin-USA TODAY Sports Good Friday morning Caps fans, hope you all had a good week and are enjoying the fact that it is now officially springtime. In Caps-world, it was a painful week, with confirmation that Sergio Cordova will miss the next six-to-eight weeks after coming off injured over the weekend against LA Galaxy. The striker position, already a question mark, has become even more of a problem. I feel for Cordova, who never looked entirely fit or up to speed in his first few matches, was asked to sacrifice himself in the away leg at Real Espana in CONCACAF Champions League pl ..read more

Gary A. Vasquez-USA TODAY Sports Good Monday morning Caps fans, hope you all are well rested heading into Monday morning — or that some coffee at least awaits you on the burner. It was another ho-hum result over the weekend for Vancouver. On a matchweek that was filled with drama, the Caps and their opponent for the second week in a row traded first half goals, with the added twist on Saturday that LA Galaxy had two goals ruled out that would have given them a victory. On the surface, a 1-1 draw isn’t awful. It is the first away points the Caps have gotten in seemingly forever (or, at least, s ..read more

Report Card: Draw in California

Gary A. Vasquez-USA TODAY Sports Analysing the match against the Galaxy The Whitecaps went down to California after losing away in Honduras and resting their main players. Did it pay off? A draw wasn’t terrible but there needs to be more asked of the players. How did everyone fare though? Check out below: Yohei Takaoka: 6.5 He’s performed some stunning saves, but at the same time, one has to worry about the two times the ball went into his net that were called off. The goal he conceded was all down to him and you can’t help but believe that it’s due to his size at least in some part. Hopefully ..read more

Whitecaps, LA Galaxy play out 1-1 stalemate, as search for first win continues

Gary A. Vasquez-USA TODAY Sports It will be two draws in a row for the Caps, as they played LA Galaxy to a 1-1 stalemate Saturday night on the road at Dignity Health Sports Park. For the second week in a row, it was a pair of first half goals that brought about the end result. A well-worked set piece goal from Tristan Blackmon put the Caps ahead but a goalkeeper error in first half stoppage time allowed Kelvin Leerdam to equalize. As expected, the Caps made a bevy of changes to return to something approximating their starting lineup. It was the now-standard back four and midfield three, with C ..read more

Jayne Kamin-Oncea-USA TODAY Sports The Whitecaps search for three points in California this weekend. Welcome back, everyone. After an eventful midweek jaunt down to Honduras, the Vancouver Whitecaps are back in action this Saturday against the LA Galaxy with a fairly well rested roster. For everything you need to know about the matchup specifically, be sure to check out our match preview here. In terms of predictions, Vanni Sartini had no injuries of note prior to training on Friday, but I will update here if I hear anything different. I would expect most of those who sat out Wednesday to play ..read more
