NHL Legends | Hockey Hall of Fame Plaque | Joe Thornton

Add a piece of history to your hockey collection with this Joe Thornton Plaque!   

Known as "Jumbo Joe," Thornton was acquired by the San Jose Sharks on Nov. 30, 2005, in a trade from the Boston Bruins.

The 6-foot-4 center was in his eighth season with the Bruins, who selected him with the No. 1 pick in the 1997 NHL Draft after he played two seasons with Sault Ste. Marie in the Ontario Hockey League and was named Canadian Hockey League Rookie of the Year in 1995-96.

He was an instant hit with the Sharks. Thornton won the Art Ross Trophy as the NHL's top scorer in 2005-06, when he had 125 points (29 goals, 96 assists), becoming the first player to win the award after being traded during the season. Thornton also won the Hart Trophy as MVP; his 96 assists surpassed the 94 points by 2003-04 Art Ross Trophy winner Martin St. Louis. Thornton was the 11th player in NHL history to have 90 assists in a season and the first to do so while playing for two teams.

Thornton became the 100th player to play in 1,200 NHL games on March 27, 2014 against the Winnipeg Jets. On Oct. 18, 2014 against the New Jersey Devils, Thornton became the 46th player in League history to have 1,200 points.

Thornton helped Canada win the gold medal at the 2010 Vancouver Olympics and was named MVP of the 2005 IIHF World Championship, where he helped Canada win a silver medal.

He left 12th in NHL history with 1,539 points (430 goals, 1,109 assists), seventh in assists and sixth in games played (1,714).

Thornton was elected to the Hockey Hall of Fame with the Class of 2025.
