I like that teams are starting to develop their own personalities now through their signings.

Pacific FC has grabbed a bunch of Canadian internationals, though they are mostly older players (Marcel de Jong, Issey Nakajima-Farran, Marcus Haber) and are leaning heavily on BC born players.

Valour FC has a bunch of Canadian youth internationals (Carreiro, Thomas, Gutierrez) and seems to be building one of the younger teams.

Edmonton and Cavalry are both largely building on their previous teams with a few additions.

York 9 may be building off their TFC connections a couple former academy players and a loan signing from there and the Jimmy Brennan link.

HFX Wanderers has their set of Trinidad & Tobago players and are playing up their local links with some local youth players signing full contracts.

Forge FC is building off the Sigma academy.

Gives us something more than just the name and logo to relate to in the build-up to actual games.
