The Province: It's been defence and more defence - @ProvinceWeber
Thordarson's side is allowing a mere 0.69 goals per game this season
The Vancouver Whitecaps have gone from road kill to road warriors in one season.

Saturday in Minnesota, the USSF D-2 team will play its final regular-season road game of 2010, and based on Vancouver's current form, there's every reason to believe the 'Caps will earn at least a tie. That would extend their unbeaten league away streak -- a mark that stands at 5-0-6 -- to 12 games.

It's in stark contrast to last season, when the Caps were a dismal 2-7-6 in league play away from Swangard Stadium, and 0-1-2 in road playoff games.
