Fans expecting their team to nab that missing piece of the MLS Cup puzzle in the Re-entry Draft on Monday shouldn't get their hopes up.

Last year, clubs used the mechanism to bolster their rosters with the likes of Juan Pablo Angel, Josh Wolff, Jimmy Conrad and Cory Gibbs.

The list for the Re-Entry Draft is out. Any interesting targets for United?

Ante Jazic: To old (36 before 2012 season starts) and too expensive ($115k salary), but plays a position of need. This would be an extreme reach, even at a reduced salary in Stage 2.

Bobby Boswell: Way too expensive ($210k salary) and we're probably set with McDonald and Jakovic in the middle of defense, but .

I've already given a mock draft based on my predictions of each MLS club's protection lists and now that the real lists are out we can get a better sense of who could be actually taken tomorrow.

Every team released their protection lists yesterday evening with a few surprises listed Montreal should come away with a decent start to their expansion campaign.

Clubs can protect 11 players ahead of the 10-round draft for the Montreal Impact, which will join MLS next year.

A team can only lose one player.

Wonder if Impact Coach Jesse Marsch will take a player from his most recent former club, Chivas USA? Will he bring home Canadian Ante Jazic, a solid addition to any expansion team's backline?

Thursday Galaxy MLS Playoff Gameday: War of words over off the field, Galaxy and Red Bulls prepare to meet on it again in Carson

Unwatchable? Don't look now, but Thierry Henry and the Red Bulls are one game away from reaching the Western Conference final - if they can become the first MLS team to beat the Galaxy at home this year (AP Photo).

I haven't yet heard whether those extra 5,000 tickets the Galaxy put on sale for tonight's Western Conference semifinal against New York have sold out, but a capacity crowd must be all but certain because after stirring the pot earlier in the week, players and coaches on both sides Wednesday downplayed the sniping that occurred earlier in the week.

It's a very Pacific Northwest kind of day here in Carson with fog billowing therough the stadium and several hundred Sounders fans in the stands outcheering the home crowd.

Seattle has started pretty much a full strength lineup: Kasey Keller-James Riley, Jeff Parke (who has returned from concussion) Jhon kennedy Hurtado, Leo Gonzalez-Alvaro Fernandez, Brad Evans, Osvaldo Alonso, Mauro Rosales-Mike Fucito, Fredy Montero.

Chivas USA hasn't had too much to celebrate, now comes the dreaded expansion draft. (Getty Images)

Chivas USA had an up and down 2011. Their season looked promising at times but injuries piled up and issues with scoring took this team over. First year manager Robin Fraser did a decent job this year but will have the fun task of going through the roster to figure out who stays and who will be left available for next month's expansion draft.

WASHINGTON -- Juan Pablo Angel's resurgent night nearly got offset by a questionable decision at the worst possible time for Chivas USA.

That is until Dan Kennedy came to the rescue.

The Chivas USA goalkeeper saved a Dwayne De Rosario penalty kick in stoppage time, and Angel scored twice in the second half to lift Chivas USA out of a two-goal hole and carry the Goats to a 2-2 draw with D.

CARSON, Calif. – Chivas USA had their first home game in a month, and faced an opponent that went a man down after a first-half red card, but the Goats couldn't capitalize on the advantage as a crucial defensive error and inept offense kept Chivas USA from gaining ground in the playoff race.

I hate to admit it, but I was at a conference on Saturday and was left to follow the Seattle Sounders-Chivas USA match via Twitter. I've now watched the highlights (and promise to watch the full game) and can safely say that the frustration I felt while not watching the game would have probably been even worse if I had watched.

I'm not sure I entirely believe in the concept of a "trap game," but if one ever fit the bill, this is it. The Seattle Sounders are coming off a very tough stretch that saw them playing emotionally and physically draining games once or twice a week for about a month. They face a similar stretch coming up.

SuperClassico weather here in Carson, so let's hope for a game to match.

Fans are filtering into the grass berm; perhaps a larger crowd is in store than the fewer than 20,000 that took in the corresponding fixture last season.

Goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts returns from illness for the Galaxy this evening, while Juan Pablo Angel replaces Miguel Lopez (who is on the bench) up front in the only two changes for Coach Bruce Arena from the team that destroyed Sporting Kansas City 4-1 last weekend.

New York Red Bulls coach Hans Backe said during the week that Sunday's match vs. Chivas USA could be a trap game for the Eastern Conference leaders. And that's exactly what it was.

Justin Braun's hat trick was just enough for Chivas USA to slip by New York, 3-2, at Red Bull Arena on Sunday.
