My MAN!
If this were the 80's he would be finishing on the all time list in the top 5. Behind only guys like Gretzky
Do people realize how insane his point totals are for this era?
1000 assists in today's NHL. The only guy not named Gretzky or Lemieux to get back to back 90 assist seasons.
My man is only a few points away from cracking top 20 all time points. If this were the 80's, this iron man is likely finishing top 5 in points behind only the Howe's and Gretzky's
He has a legit shot at finishing top 5 in assists(If Jagr ever retires) as he is only 42 assists behind 5th all time. If this were the 80's, Jumbo Joe goes down as #2 behind Gretzky for assists
And 2 lockouts LMAO
Now 11th all time in era adjusted points.
Congrats, Jumbo!
I hope his Dad was in attendance!
Another legend who should've been on the top 100 list instead of Toews.
Jumbo Joe, Living Legend
You're right. Let's look back on the other nine ****ing hundred and ninety ****ing nine and see which ones count.
Thornton didn't even act like he cared about the assist. Just skated off the ice trying to avoid all the pats on the head lol.
i still die every time i see this. Congrats Joe, he was really fun to watch. getting old. still one of the best passers though
That's just who he is. Most humble guy on the ice.
Would have been impressive if he would have gotten the goalie from the bench.
It is a shame that he does not get wayyyyy more attention than he does
Nothing against the Penguins, but seeing Thornton's thousand yard stare after losing in the Finals last year, actually wounded my soul. Such a quiet and powerful leader... I really wanted him to get one.
And the Bruins traded him for Wayne Primeau, Stuart, and some other nobody.
