*International spots are tradeable.  Every team starts out with 8.  The Rapids have traded two (to Vancouver ant Atlanta) and acquired at least one (from FSL).  They acquired two others with unannounced expiration dates, from LA before the 2015 season and from San Jose before the 2016 season.  So at this time the Rapids have at least 7 spots and possibly up to 9.
