      ​@@rv2167 What are you saying? He coached the team for two and half seasons before the year they won. They didn't even make the playoffs his first two years. Thornton will always go down as a loser, that's a fact. Those Sharks teams he led in the early to mid 2010s had all the pieces to win a Cup and they didn't. A lot of that falls on him and Patrick Marleau.
