The Montreal Impact sputtered out of the gates in 2017 posting a 0-2-3 mark over the first five matches before defeating Atlanta United in mid-April to collect their first win of the season. More roller coaster results followed the Impact until late May when they defeated Vancouver 5-4 over two legs to win their Canadian Championship semi-final.
Yet more league inconsistency followed the Montreal Impact into the Canadian Championship final in late June where Toronto FC narrowly edged the Impact 3-2 over the two legs to claim the Voyager’s Cup and the CONCACAF Champions League berth.
