Quote:
Thornton, who holds a Swiss passport, has been training with Davos since July. He's played for the club during the past two NHL lockouts and has 22 goals and 90 points in 73 career National League games.
"It's a great honour that Joe has chosen to appear for the HCD for a third time in his incredible career," Davos coach Raeto Raffainer said in a translated statement. "And what I saw from him in training, he is absolutely capable of helping our team athletically. His kick-off, his puck control and his pass quality is still at an extremely high level. It will be a great pleasure for all hockey fans to see him play on Swiss ice again."
