The latest NHL rumour being floated is that the Toronto Maple Leafs may be making a jersey for the future Hall of Famer, Joe Thornton, to wear to finish the season.
The basis of getting Jumbo Joe to leave the Bay Area is to give him the Ray Bourque treatment. Thornton has had an incredible career. He has won a Hart Trophy, an Art Ross Trophy and has been named to four All-Star teams.
The award that has eluded him through his 22 years in the NHL is the Stanley Cup. The time is right for Thornton to leave the San Jose Sharks in favour of latching on with a contender, possibly the Maple Leafs.
