With Maxime Crepeau away at the Gold Cup the Vancouver Whitecaps have been forced to turn to another Canadian Goalkeeper in Thomas Hasal. In this article I will argue that they should keep doing that, at least sometimes.
Maxime Crepeau got off to a red hot start to the 2021 season. At one time he had saved more goals above expected than any other keeper in the league. This hot start was then followed by a poor run of form that saw Crepeau’s numbers crater and the Whitecaps to only pick up one point over a five game stretch.
