He remained with the Fire until returning to New York for a single season in 2008, before being traded to Chivas USA.

In 2009 Thornton won the MLS Goalkeeper of the Year Award, as well as, a spot on the MLS Best IX, given to the best 11 players in Major League Soccer in any given year. This is Thornton's second appearance on the prestigious team, having also received the recognition in 1998, as well.
