Kennedy played 90. Klagenfurt tied it up on a stoppage time goal for a 2-2 finish. A loss to a fellow relegation threatened side would have been terrible for them especially after a run of pretty good results brought them out of the relegation zone. They are presently tied with 3 other teams, 3 points above the relegation zone.

All three Canadians in the starting lineup for Orlando tonight

You're just a ray of sunshine, ain't ya?

Probably tactical since he starts normally in the 4-4-2, regardless you have a week before you take your next shot at him.

Finished in 7th last year in the top flight. Nice move up for Boakai, hopefully he can get his career back on track.

Yes he has signed.  
Here is my translation of the Finnish article:
"New player contract - versatile Jonas Häkkinen has signed with Vaasan Palloseura 
Vaasan Palloseura [VPS] has signed a player contract with the young Finnish player Jonas Häkkinen. The contract is 1+1 years. [unspecified whether the option is one way or two way] 
Jonas Häkkinen is a multi-functional player who owns both the Finnish and Canadian passports, and who can play both stopper and defensive midfielder. 
"For the last few years he has played stopper, but before that he has played defensive midfielder, as well", VPS head coach Petri Vuorinen comments. 
Häkkinen has played his entire career in Vancouver, where he has played in the Whitecaps academy. Häkkinen has Finnish parents and he speaks good Finnish, although his native tongue is English. 
"Jonas has trained with us for quite a while already. He came to Finland to uplift his career. Comparing him with other players of his generation (1999), I believe that he has the full potential to succeed in Finnish Premier League", Vuorinen analyzes. 
Very little about this promising player is known in Finland. Contact between the player and the club came through his agent. The youngster has trained with VPS for a month already. 
"The agent suggested that we give Jonas a trial. We decided to take him along and have been judging his play. In the last few years, many young players looking to develop have trialed for us. This time we found a good "match". I do not think many have heard of him here, even though he is Finnish. He is a new face for many here in that sense."
In addition to his playing skills, there is another thing Vuorinen specifically likes about Häkkinen. 
"He has a very tough but healthy attitude about sports and football in general. All that is right", Vuorinen comments. 
Jonas' own interview will be done during November.

Since it's my first post, I figure it's fine to use this space to say hello everybody, too. I am a VPS fan from Finland - a cold, stable Northern country, with an under-performing National Team with a history of promising players selecting some another country, and whose general public has an unhealthy obsession with this sticky-sport played on ice.
Suppose this description also explains to you all why I have somehow developed kind of a weird sympathetic affinity towards the "soccer people" in Canada, and hence I have been following your NT for the past few years, including lurking on this forum occasionally. So I figured that now that this guy signed with my local club team, it would be a good excuse to register here too. So I do hope you guys don't mind having me as an "outsider" for our countries are yet to develop a fierce rivalry in this sport. (Although I also wouldn't mind, if in the next few years one developed over Häkkinen's services at the senior level. )

Would Jonas warrant his own thread, btw? Now that he's going to be playing here, I would be more than glad to contribute with updates on Jonas etc. since I watch every VPS game anyway.

This is a pretty promising move for Fillion. FC Aarau is in the 2nd tier Challenge League but are one of the bigger teams there. His competition at keeper is Steven Deana who is a veteran of the Swiss 2nd tier and started the first game but if he gets some chances and takes advantage of them he will be playing at a decent level with possibilities of moving to the Swiss 1st tier Super League especially given that he is owned by FC Zurich of that league. We definitely need some keeper depth for the national team so hopefully he will be one to watch.
