ImpactMartins tallied a goal, three assists and seven clean sheets in 36 MLS appearances (35 starts) for Sporting KC in 2021, and the 29-year-old left back now moves to Vancouver, where his presence should free up Cristian Dajome to play a more attacking role.

ImpactWhite was an attacking threat to Toronto despite not finding the net himself on Sunday. After missing most of the first month of the season with a foot injury, he has taken 11 shots (five on target) and scored one goal across his five starts since the start of April. Next weekend he will face MLS's worst defense in the Earthquakes, which have conceded 23 times in 10 matches this campaign.

ImpactGauld was dangerous Sunday in his return from a concussion, and he played a role in the buildup to Tosaint Ricketts' 90th-minute winning goal. He will be ready for next weekend's clash against the Earthquakes, which have conceded an MLS-high 23 times in 10 matches this season.
