I have had the opportunity to use some great seats the last two seasons. They are lower bowl right on the red behind the benches. I have seen a lot of stars come and go but I have said it time and again. I have never seen a more dominate player on the ice than Joe Thorton.
If you just watch him his efforts are flawless and perfect every time. He is the pivot for this team every puck comes into him it and always comes out in the exact perfect spot and perfect weight every single time. Most of the time he gets a ton of flak for his efforts but he makes it look so simple its deceiving. Just watch next time there is a scrum in the corner he doesn't scrap to get it, he is just the smartest player out there and just seems to come out with it.
His past team/himself playoff performances drastically cast a shadow on how amazing a player he is.
