Thornton dished out an assist in a 6-5 overtime loss to Florida on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Despite the less-than-desirable outcome, Jumbo Joe continued his run of improved play with his fifth point in his last four games. While he's well off the pace of last year's whopping 82-point showing, Thornton has improved his play with 12 points across his last 15 contests, so owners that had been largely disappointed with his early results have some reason for optimism in season's final two months.
