The main question is, Thornton had 2 more points than Jagr. Jagr had endless of more goals than Thornton.

Where are all the people who claim goals are worth much more than assists in almost any other thread?

If Ovie would have had Jagrs season he would have won this poll by a landslide!

Thornton switched teams mid season, made Cheechoo a rocket winner and put up an assist number that hadn't been seen since Mario in 92 (96 assists) and hasn't been touched since.

Hell, only 4 players in history have had more assists in a season than Thornton in 06...Wayne, Mario, Orr, Oates.

Thornton in 06 goes beyond the goals v assists debate

05-06 was a bit like 70s to early 90s hockey again. All those powerplays. I wish it stayed more like that.
