The 2022 Canadian Premier League season is finally upon us, and in celebration of the league's fourth campaign kicking off, CanPL.ca's Kristian Jack and Charlie O'Connor-Clarke got together for a full in-depth preview show.
They went team by team, starting out east with HFX Wanderers and finishing on the west coast with the champs Pacific FC, breaking down what's new with each of the CPL's eight clubs and hearing from the head coaches and key players from each team.
KJ and Charlie start with the Wanderers (8:19) and hear from Stephen Hart and João Morelli. They move on to a new-look Atlético Ottawa side (22:37) and chat with Carlos González and Nathan Ingham before heading to York United (40:11) as Martin Nash and Max Ferrari share their thoughts on the Nine Stripes in 2022.
