Thornton (knee) has no timetable for his return, Mike Morreale of NHL.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Thornton has experienced swelling in his surgically-repaired right knee, and the setback left the Sharks with little choice but to put the veteran on injured reserve last week. Jumbo's actively being treated for an infection in the knee, but the silver lining is that there's no structural damage to the joint. At this point, we don't recommend dropping Thornton in fantasy hockey unless you have a deep bench.

That doesnt make sense...."we dont recommend dropping him unless you have a deep bench"....it should be we recommend dropping him unless you have a deep bench (because if you have a deep bench, you can stash him) anyway i dont think he is owned in anyway
