zomg, gamez!
the Olympic Stamdium in Montreal is sold out for this one, and the late game is in Seattle, so should be some outstanding atmosphere tonight, if nothing else. hopefully there is also some outstanding play though. previews: http://www.mlssoccer.com/post/2016/1...-championships

Tuesday night's opener (8 pm ET; ESPN in the US | TSN1, TSN3 & RDS in Canada) is both the Eastern Conference Championship and a long-standing grudge match that goes beyond soccer and beyond sports. Montreal and Toronto have been at each other's throats for just about two centuries, and that's not going to change any time soon.
[...]
There is no rivalry to the nightcap (10 pm ET; FS1 in the US | TSN1, TSN3 & RDS2 in Canada), but there is plenty of mystery built largely around the health status of key players.
Jordan Morris limped out of Seattle's last game at halftime with a hamstring issue, and hamstring issues don't magically heal in two weeks. Shkelzen Gashi was the hero for Colorado against LA, and then he was stretchered off the field. We know Clint Dempsey won't be playing for the Sounders, and we know that Tim Howard will not be able to play for the Rapids.
Goal machine Nelson Valdez had to be subbed out for Seattle against Dallas, and Jermaine Jones is coming off 161 tough minutes for the US national team. Both guys will probably be fine to go, and yet it's 100 percent fair to question just how close to full strength they are.
