He makes millions of dollars, you should go back to peewee, learn how to play hockey half as well, then go make millions of dollars and be as mature as you are now.

That's awesome. Thornton has always had a good sense of humour.

Is there anything about that hockey market that doesn't suck.

Joe Thornton is awesome though, should have said it on the record.

I agree, I loved the comment.

The old boys network that is criticizing Hertl is a bunch of dinosaurs.

BTW, it was Jason Botchford that first published it.

Thornton shouted it to 20 reporters. If I don't report that, I'm called to the carpet.

Joe,

As a vocal supporter of YCP, we feel we have a duty to warn you: Don't try that in Sochi.

Love, YCP

And now the spotlight on San Jose moves off the 19 year old kid being scrutinized for a goal move and onto Joe making a hilarious comment.

Intended or not, probably just saved Hertl a ton of awkward media time.

He's the biggest hack out there. There is no limit to my distaste for the crap he writes. He is also quick to block anyone on twitter who remotely makes him look bad when he can't think up a comeback. I remember he wanted to fight somebody because they told him to stand up and stop typing during the national anthem.

May I suggest a new nickname? "Strokin'" Joe Thornton? How does that sound, everybody?

Hilarious by Thornton, low by the reported.

I'd say fire him. He won't be given the ability to get into dressing rooms again so he's pretty much useless.
