Does Vancouver Whitecaps' Carl Robinson Deserve the MLS Coach of the Year Award?

The Vancouver Whitecaps are riding high in 2015. They are one of the most entertaining teams in MLS, are fighting for the Supporters' Shield and just won their first-ever Voyageurs Cup after 13 years of trying.

Carl Robinson is the first person to win Canadian Championship (2009) as a player and Canadian Championship as a head coach (2015).
