Thornton met his wife Tabea in Davos when he was playing for them during the 2004-05 lockout (54 points in 40 games) and thus has strong ties to the area. He is currently in the second seasons of a three-year contract extension he signed with the Sharks in 2014. This season, he has scored four goals and twelve assists in 27 games. (mso)
