He is anything but a plus and more of a liability if you are strictly speaking defensively.

Maybe you should look at the trending data and not just the raw numbers? Thornton is vastly improved on defense over the last few years, and it continues to be this year as well. Jumbo lead the league in takeaways by a good amount and had over 40 more than Dats (114 vs 71) this year.

This was tweeted by Jamie Baker today

Det Media on Thornton - "his recalibration as a defensive fwd was hyped throughout season but has b/c real against best in playoffs"

This is from your own media, not some "homer" from San Jose.

They skated a bit that way 2 days ago in practive. TM has said many times that his lines are not set.

wait... Detroit doesn't broadcast it's own games locally? You have to watch it on VS? Or is it just that way for hotwings (and those out of the detroit market)?

Detroit coming on strong, early. If SJ can kill this penalty, I hope it transfers to some offensive momentum.
