Toronto FC vs Montreal Impact: Two Solitudes Derby Time – Can TFC Get Out of the Basement?
Toronto FC vs Montreal Impact ~ March 17th, 3pm ET ~ Stade Olympique ~ CTV/TSN4 Normally the Two Solitudes Derby (what, not everyone uses that other derby name), is one of the games that everyone gets up for – they’re our closest rival, there’s an oft volatile relationship between the fans, and the games themselves are usually scrappy, wild affairs. Coming off the heady high of advancing past Tigres in the CCL, TFC...
VMP Final Countdown 2017: Number 17 – Raheem Edwards
Highest: 9 Lowest: 21 Average ranking: 16.04 Duncan: 12 – 2016 saw Edwards barely play, but look really good when he did, so I was thrilled when he started getting minutes early in this season, and then, mainly due to injuries forcing Justin Morrow out of the left back position, continue to get minutes for a good chunk of time.

Admittedly Wednesday night’s game against Orlando wasn’t the prettiest or the most dominant; but unlike TFC of old (or even of earlier this season), they held on and closed out the game to...
VMP 2016 Final Countdown #26: Raheem Edwards
Mark: 26 – I will treasure all of his contributions this year. Six minutes. Raheem Edwards made his debut for Toronto FC in a Voyageurs Cup match against Vancouver, coming on for Osorio in the 86th minute in late June. He followed that performance by making his league debut in an 88th minute substitution coming on for Eriq Zavaleta. It’s probably more time than that, but for the purposes of the narrative, we’ll ignore extra...
