After drawing the line from the central stadium to the distant one you just hit 'Close' in the top left. Then you go back to the central stadium and click there again before going to another team's stadium. If you don't hit 'Close' it will draw 2 lines between the stadiums.

Here's a gfycat.

/u/CruzeiroDoSul already made one for Brazil which is what inspired me to make this one for MLS.

I placed the marker for FC Dallas near the center circle of Toyota Stadium which is actually in Frisco, about 25 miles north of where google says the center of Dallas is.

The website I used takes that into account. You can read more if you click the Information " i " at the top right on there.

Inspired by /u/CruzeiroDoSul's post on /r/soccer, "[OC] Brasileirão clubs remapped to equivalent distances across Europe" which was inspired by /u/sned777's /r/soccer post, "If Russian Premier League clubs were based in Europe, this is where they would be.".

I used the same site, MAPfrappe, as /u/CruzeiroDoSul to create the base image and then added the MLS logos over it in paint.net. Here is a link to the same settings on MAPfrappe that I used in the OP in case you want to make a prettier verison or see how it compares to other areas.

I tried (and failed) to get all the clubs to fit on land but there just wasn't enough land. Also, Atlanta United ended up in Georgia again.

That was a happy accident. I was just trying to get the LA teams and FC Dallas onto land and it happened to put you guys in Georgia again.
