We’re still in the early stages of the season, which means MVP candidates are already starting to emerge while some players have yet to take the field. Lots to look forward to, as this week’s watchlist features multiple two-way playmakers, notable 2025 debuts, and a handful of guys coming off big Week 2 showings.

Five goal leads aren’t what they used to be. 

In rapid succession on Saturday night, the DC Breeze and Oakland Spiders each saw their five-goal advantages disappear. Both ultimately recovered to narrowly win by one, but the victories were anything but easy.

Another game delay. Another tight contest. And unfortunately, another narrow road loss.

Toronto’s 19–16 loss to the Philadelphia Phoenix may sting, but if the first two weeks have made anything clear, it’s this: the margins are razor-thin. The difference between 0–2 and 2–0 has come down to a handful of moments in each game—a frustrating start, but one packed with promise.
