With his generational playmaking skill Joe Thornton put up yet another assist against Toronto. The assist was Joe's 1399th career Point which got him into the top 20 all time in career Points. What was even more satisfying was that Jari Kurri is finally out of the top 20 all time. If there was anybody who didn't belong in that top 20 Before, it was Kurri. Basically just a glorified Chris Kunitz from the 80s. Thornton is a much better fit for the top 20 all time. What made it even more sweet was that Thornton got to spoil Marleau's return to San Jose too.
It's crazy how underrated Thornton has become. Everybody seems to forget that Thornton will most likely end his career as second all time in assists and the highest scoring player to never win the cup.
