Joe Thornton vs Drew Doughty

While Thornton is much bigger, remember that Drew Doughty was in the media talking about how they wanted to knock the Sharks out of the playoffs before they even start. As the captain, Jumbo probably felt it was his job to shut Doughty up, or at least show him how tough the Sharks were gonna be in these 2 games. It wasn't a cheap win, it was doing exactly what the team needed.

Thornton doesn't fight much anymore and Doughty never fights, but the outcome is hardly surprising. Doughty eats a diet of lefts.

Where did that come from? An easy win for Thornton, but he is about a foot taller.

All Jumbo Joe -- Doughty does not want to see a left for some time

Thornton rains lefts all over the Human Mop... He could have picked him up and dusted the boards at the Kings bench... The most active thing Doughty did was after the fact, when he apparently thought he was in a mosh pit and did a couple hair flips...

Back in his salad days, Jumbo Joe could throw quite effectively. He became the "player who was too valuable to fight" (see Chara, Zdeno). And justifiably so.
But he's still got it- at least against people a weight class below him.

Those looked like some Heavy Handed Lefts

St Thomas 1 London O

Thornton is a big man and he threw those lefts well. A win for him, he really should do this more.

Big Joe takes this one.

another how was your flight and family

NICE JOB JOE....actually never seen him fight

Drew Barrymore gets owned

hey drew, when you engage into a fight the point is to punch the opponent face and not just eating lefts while not fireing back!!!!!

That Wasn't a Fight, That was Rape...J T with the Win

Thornton throwing lefts, Doughty trying to survive. Thornton win. I'ts funny to see the Kings fans cheer like Doughty won. hahahaha
