Keegan Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Matt Stinson and Kevin Cobby are on trial with the Caps this week. Good on Vancouver, I can't see either one sticking though. Stinson should spend a year overseas or in NASL and maybe he can get a contract and play a big role on the Ottawa NASL team for next season.

Greatest Cockney Rip Off Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Matt Stinson and Kevin Cobby are on trial with the Caps this week. Toronto could really use Stinson right now. I am not sure how Ritcher took his place as RB depth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masster Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Matt Stinson and Kevin Cobby are on trial with the Caps this week. I don't expect either guy to sign, but I wouldn't be surprised if one or both of them sticks around and plays PDL this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madmonte Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 I see Stinson on the Vancouver payroll for "salaries released" thread. Didn't realize he officially signed, good for him, as I said in the head article! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youllneverwalkalone Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 ^He's just one of the players that was recently released. For some reason, a few of these guys get included on these lists. Just a coincidence that he's trialing with Vancouver and they are also last on this list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheKottonmouthed1555362307 Posted May 24, 2013 Author Share Posted May 24, 2013 Kenny Miller re-joined the club as well though from a twitter picture floating around he was seen laying on the pitch with an ice bag on the left knee, so looks like Kenny did not have a step forward.

He doesn't, he's gone. End of story. Doesn't matter what side of the debate you are on, there no longer is a debate, at least as it relates to THIS player.

Right now Teibert and Clarke are the only 2 players on the Caps roster with Canada listed as their nation, with a requirement for 3 on the roster that must mean Koffie has his residency and they're counting him now no?...

Grizzly Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Rochat got traded to DC United for a 2015 second round pick and a conditional 2016 pick. The Caps hate Canadians! Even fake ones! Seriously though that is a really low return for a player like Rochat. Unless there is something we don't know about like a conflict with Rennie and Rochat or something similar, the Caps must have something planned. The trade does not make any sense unless it is a salary dump because they have a better signing coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canadianfoot Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 From what I know his contract was coming to an end this season. So the Whitecaps traded him for "something" at least. Otherwise he was free to walk away seasons end. Correct it does hurt in a way but Rochat wasn't cheap if I recall, I do wonder if the Whitecaps got some allocation money maybe as well. But I do hope Managment has something up their sleeves because with Rochat gone and if YP gets injured we're f.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The trade does not make any sense unless it is a salary dump because they have a better signing coming. Even if this was a salary dump. It is a terrible trade. We could of easily dumped non everyday starters to relieve cap room. Cannon, Davidson, Harvey, Hertzog, Rusin. All guys I would of dumped before Rochat, and if you take any 2 of them you basically would of cleared the same amount you do by dumping Rochat. Rochat was not making that much money and was earning every dime of it. We trade a quality everyday fullback for nothing. I don't get it. Rennie is starting to look worse and worse, sadly.

youllneverwalkalone Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Bit of head scratcher. Pretty sure Rochat and Rennie were at odds. Hopefully this will open the door for Adekugbe to sign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only for the weekend I believe, but yes Koffie is acting as the 3rd Canadian till Thomas comes back to the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
