TORONTO -- As homecomings go, the MLS Cup final is going to be hard to beat for Seattles Stefan Frei.Frei made critical saves in regulation and then again in the penalty-kick shootout to help the Sounders win their first championship with a 5-4 victory in the tiebreaker against Toronto FC on Saturday night.The Swiss goalkeeper, who was drafted by Toronto in 2009 and spent five seasons with the club until he was traded in 2013, earned the games MVP honors.This is what you want to be a part of, he said. Weve made Sounders history and for me it could have happened anywhere, I dont care as long as Im with my team and my teammates.Roman Torres scored in the sixth round of penalty kicks to clinch the trophy after 120 scoreless minutes. It was the first MLS Cup final to fail to produce a goal in regulation, setting the stage for a dramatic tiebreaker.While Torontos Michael Bradley and Alvaro Fernandez for Seattle had both seen their shots saved, the game went to sudden-death spot kicks. Torontos Justin Morrow could only clatter his shot off the crossbar, setting the stage for Torres to win it with a high shot down the middle of the goal.You need a little bit of luck, Frei said. Lets face it, PKs are not the prettiest thing to decide a game, and actually Roman missed a penalty in training yesterday. Im glad he missed yesterday and not today.Seattle became the first team in MLS Cup final history to fail to produce a shot on target throughout the game. Additionally, the Sounders three shots overall were the fewest in an MLS title game, the first to feature two expansion franchises. Toronto was the first Canadian MLS Cup finalist.That meant little to Bradley, who was understandably dejected after seeing his team become just the second to lose at home since MLS switched from having the final at a neutral location to the home stadium of the finalist with the most regular-season points in 2012. The Portland Timbers became the first when they won the championship in Columbus against the Crew last year.Every guy gave everything they had, every guy walked off the field having pored their hearts into the game and we didnt get rewarded tonight, Bradley said. Thats sports, thats life.With the game on the line, Toronto coach Greg Vanney removed former MLS most valuable player Sebastian Giovinco in the 103rd minute in favor of Tosaint Ricketts. While Vanney said that an exhausted Giovinco couldnt move, after the game, the gutsy call almost paid off.Following Ricketts cross five minutes after coming on, it looked as if Jozy Altidore was going to give Toronto the lead in the 108th minute with a looping header, but an athletic save from Frei kept it scoreless. Leaping to his left, he scooped the ball off the line with his left hand, allowing his defense to clear the ball to safety.Obviously Frei makes a couple big saves that keep them in it, Vanney said. But congratulations to them.For Seattle coach Brian Schmetzer, who took over from Sigi Schmid on July 26 with Seattle in ninth place in the Western Conference, the turnaround was complete. Posting an 8-2-4 record since then, Seattle became the first team in MLS history to make the playoffs after having 20 or fewer points through the seasons first 20 matches.Some people say defense wins championships, he said. You couple Romans performance with Stefan Frei, who came up massive with that one save and then in the penalty-kick shootout made the save that he needed to make.ONE COLD NIGHTThe temperature at kickoff was 28 degrees, making it the second-coldest MLS Cup on record. That honor goes to the 2013 edition at Sporting Park in Kansas City, where the game kicked off at 22 degrees.ONE HOT TICKETWhile the remaining tickets for Saturdays final sold out in three minutes after going on sale to the general public last Monday, there were still 90 or so tickets available on StubHub 10 minutes prior to kickoff. Prices ranged from $147 up to $2,500 for a ticket that retailed between $55 and $555 at face value.THE POWER OF CHANGESchmetzer became the first coach in MLS history to take charge of a team midway through the season and lead it to a championship. Schmid (Los Angeles Galaxy) and Steve Nicol (New England Revolution) took their teams to the title match, but both came up short.THE PRICE IS RIGHTI hope we get to do this every year; its pretty fun. If we dont win the championship every year I hope everyone has to go through us to get to the championship every year and when they get here theyre bloody and bruised and can barely play. -- Seattle Sounders part-owner, and host of the Price is Right, Drew Carey, in the locker room after the game.

CALGARY -- A former Canadian Football League all-star completed his spectacular fall from grace Friday when he was sentenced to 90 days in jail for assaulting his one-time girlfriend. Joffrey Reynolds, 33, will serve his time on weekends and faces two years of probation once he has completed his sentence. He was found guilty earlier this year of assault causing bodily harm, common assault and unlawfully being in a dwelling after trying to choke and smother his former girlfriend when she came home and found him in her bed in July 2012. Crown prosecutor Hyatt Mograbee had asked that Reynolds be given two to three years in prison. Reynoldss defence lawyer told court that his client had already lost his reputation and career and shouldnt have to spend time behind bars. "He stands before you today contrite, respectful of this court and remorseful for what happened," said Bjorn Harsanji. "This was a person who was an MVP a few years ago and then he was released. He has lost a lot. His public reputation is gone. I think the message is out. Theres a general deterrence that no one is above the law. "Mr. Reynolds is certainly not above the law." Reynolds is from Texas and played college football at the University of Houston. He played eight years for the Calgary Stampeders and was the teams all-time leading rusher with 9,213 yards. He was named a CFL all-star four times and won a Grey Cup championship with the Stampeders in 2008 before his release in 2012. Since his conviction, he has been working on a construction site. Kaitlin Ward, 27, had dated Reynolds for six years before ending their relationship in December 2011 upon discovering hee had been cheating on her.dddddddddddd. Ward testified at the trial that she and Reynolds were trying to determine if they could "salvage" their relationship when she allowed him to stay with her for a couple of days after his house went into foreclosure. Ward testified she told Reynolds at a party that he had to get out. She said Reynolds got angry and kicked her in the back of the leg and was waiting for her later when she got home. "I was shocked," she said. "I went by the front door to shoo him out. Thats when he kind of tackled me." Ward said Reynolds was sitting on top of her. "Hes smothering my mouth and choking me. Shoving his chin into my neck," she said. "I was gasping for air at that point." Justice Brian Stevenson imposed strict curfews on Reynolds, told him he cannot drink alcohol and ordered him to undergo counselling if required. He also ordered Reynolds to write a letter of apology to Ward and to donate $5,000 to the Calgary Womens Emergency Shelter. The Crown read a victim impact statement on behalf of Ward who said even a year later she remains fearful. "I still think about the crime when entering my home alone at night and Im still scared," she said in the statement. "I was very worried after he was found guilty, and not sentenced immediately, that he would attack me again. This is a person who has an extreme temper that (he) cant control and this was not his first time assaulting me." Reynoldss lawyer said it was "highly likely" that his client would be removed from Canada and sent home to the United States once his sentence is complete. ' ' '
