If New York makes it into the Audi 2022 MLS Cup Playoffs, it would be the 13th-consecutive berth into the postseason, tied for the longest streak, both active and all-time, in league history.

The Red Bulls 23 playoff appearances would be the most in league history, having missed just four times (1997, 1999, 2002, & 2009). If RBNY qualify for the postseason for the 13th-consecutive year, it would be the longest stretch among major sports teams in the New York Metro-area in 2022.
