As I see it, there 7 teams battling for 6 playoff spots. Orlando has fallen off the map, and New England couldn't win away from home if they played a 80 game regular season. So of these other 6 teams, who would you LIKE to play in our first playoff series this year, and who would LEAST like to play.

New York City FC
Chicago Fire
Columbus Crew
New York Red Bulls
Montreal Impact
Atlanta FC

For me, Columbus would be my choice for the team I'd like to play in the playoffs, and Montreal the least. Atlanta a close 2nd.

I think the Impact seem to always have our number, so they would be the least.
NYFC would be my favourite to play.

I think Columbus is the worst team of the bunch (they have a minus goal diff), so I'd go with them.

I'd like to avoid Atlanta because their GD (+12) suggests that they may be better than their record indicates.

NYCFC. after what we did to them last year and this, and how they have pulled points out of nothing this year I think they would be dangerous.

My brain says NYRB would be my choice to play - they are fragile.

My heart says MONTREAL because it would be glorious again.

Avoiding Atlanta would be a good idea - I'm hoping they finish 5th or 6th and get beat away. Not sure I would want to be their opponent on turf in that dome for their first home playoff game.

Preferred:
Red Bulls
Crew
NYCFC

Okay (but would be nail bitting):
Fire
Atlanta

Avoid at all costs (for first round):
Montreal

I'd be ok to meet MTL in the conf final mainly because there would be insane levels of hype around it. Rather not get them in semis.

I honestly don't think anyone in the league this year can beat this team in a 2 leg aggregate.

They all scare me.

I want the Red Bulls the most. I think we can fuck with them.

Everyone else makes me nervous. But Id go back to Montreal because id love to win a leg there.

I'm pretty sure Montreal would give me an ulcer. Plus we play them 3 times between now and playoffs so I'm pretty sure I'll have had my fill of beating up on them.

I feel like Columbus we would hammer which would be fun, or NYCFC because we seem to have had their number lately (playoffs last year, 4-0 at home a few weeks ago) so that could be good.



Most: Montreal Least: Montreal
Yep.

Least: NYCFC, I hate watching us play on that field, regardless of how much we run up the score.
Most: Montreal, for the hype.

This!
Would be by far the best scenario.

Would love to meet MTL in the conference final again. Not sure my heart could handle the stress again though. Might be best if MTL just doesn't make the playoffs.

I can honestly say I have no preference. We are good enough to beat anyone handily.

I do not want to even see Montreal make the playoffs let alone face them. I have my moment from last years ECC and I'm good for now

Most: Montreal, for the atmosphere.
Least: Atlanta, they're scary good when their attack is clicking. And Jacob Peterson will find a way to screw us.

This!! There is not a team in this league that scares me over a 2 leg series.
