Joe Thornton Starting Camp In Top-Six Role
4 years agoToronto Maple Leafs forward Joe Thornton started training camp alongside Auston Matthews and Mitch Marner. The 41-year-old skated alongside the duo during both days of practice, suggesting he will start the season on their line. Thornton only recorded 31 points in 70 games for the Sharks last season, but in a far lesser role. He is worthy of a speculative pick towards the end of fantasy drafts, as exposure to the two Maple Leafs' stars gives his fantasy stock a significant boost.
