Caden Clark

And it's especially nice to get it from the new guys.

Banger from Jovovich, a banger from Caden Clark.

And what we hadn't seen, I think, even in this run of draws, not even just talking about the losing streak that we had, but even in this run of draws, I don't think we'd seen that level of fire and just like a need to get something done, to get some goals, to get a point.

We had not seen that kind of urgency and that execution yet on this run.

This is the point where it just has to happen.

Yeah, look, you could see it in Brian's face and the way he talked about the game.

You could see it in Christian and Caden Clark, you know, a guy that scored his first goal for the Sounders and yet couldn't quite.

It didn't feel like he was happy about the result because you needed those points and you kind of felt like maybe you had it.

LA Galaxy came back to win on the road 3-2 versus Minnesota, and St. Louis put on a dominant performance at home to beat Toronto 3-1.

Vancouver stayed atop the Western Conference with a 3-0 win over Real Salt Lake, while Seattle's stoppage-time goal from Caden Clark earned a point on the road as they tied with Colorado 3-3.

Finally, Atlanta traveled all the way to Portland and got the late-night 1-0 win despite Portland putting up 17 shots.

Tonight, enter Miami as heavily favored as they'll host a San Diego team who struggles mightily on the road.

Then the push really, really came.

83rd minute, Brian Schmetzer makes a switch, and for the first time, Caden Clark, former United States men's national teamer, fallen out of favor.

Clark steps on the field in Ray Green for the first time in the 83rd minute.

And 10 minutes after entering the game, Caden Clark takes it top of the box, about 23 yards out, and puts it into the net.

3-3, 93rd minute equalizer.

win because sure does feel like it and the sounders could have even had a fourth they could have had a 4-3 win but even 3-3 feels like a big win and the sounders come away with colorado it'll be a happy flight home they might as well sing jingle bells it's a 3-3 final Breathe.

The Rapids were ahead 3-1 after scoring in the 76th minute.

Dayan Jovovich scores in the 79th.

And maybe we'll see a different way that that is played without Paul Rothwell.

I think Caden Clark, at the very least, provides you the highest upside.

And, you know, he's not...

I don't think he's the highest floor.

Kingston aerial.

I don't know.

I'm not sure who provides the best, the highest floor, but it does seem like Caden Clark, if one player is going to break out and actually do something that is unexpected that, you know, if there's one guy who could come in and have four goals and four assists over the last 11 games of the season, it seems like Caden Clark is the one that's most likely to be able to do that.

He, you know, can he do it? I don't know, but he has that potential.

I would imagine that one option would be to just bring in Danny Masovsky when Jovovich is out for the international break.

And then what do you do on the left? I have to imagine that they're going to want to at least see what they have in Caden Clark at some point.

I'm not convinced that Seba Gomez is the answer if you want to win games.

I think Seba Gomez has a lot of promise, but I've said on the show before, I don't think he's quite ready to be a contributor on a playoff team.

He's been gone and I've already just completely frightened his no, no, no.

The, uh, the other one, Caden Clark, um, yeah, the move of Caden Clark that was looking very tenuous as to like who was willing to take this guy on.

Um, and that was the other player that I think they were, that they needed to, they could have moved out, have, you know, two open, uh, senior roster slots.

Um, but I think it was maybe they weren't sure that deal was gonna happen or they were gonna be able to find a, a landing spot for Caden Clark.

So it was like, well, we need to make sure we have that spot available.

And also, you know, if we don't, if nothing comes together, he'll get some first team minutes, then we can sort of bring him back into the fold and, you know, he'll be fit and we can have them actually maybe start some games.

So

Caden Clark has been loaned to Tacoma Defiance, by the way.
