MLS franchises with the longest post-season win streaks
This is a list of teams that have active post-season series win streaks. A post-season series win streak is continued by making the post-season and winning at least one playoff series. This streak is measured for consecutive MLS seasons and not consecutive series - i.e. the teams listed may have won the first post-season series to continue the streak, not every series in the post-season.
