In this special video blog series for TFC Republic, I look back at key moments in the history of Toronto FC. This week: The second leg of the 2016 Eastern Conference final vs. the Montreal Impact.

“For me, [this] was the most exciting playoff event that I’ve ever been a part of and ever seen,” former Reds coach Greg Vanney stated.

This two-game set between the Canadian rivals is widely considered among the best playoff series in MLS history, capped off by a memorable second leg on a rainy night in Toronto.
