Thornton scored his sixth goal of the season and had two assists in Tuesday's win over the Kings.

EDGE Analysis

Thornton has been steadily producing of late, churning out two goals and seven points in his last five games. The 36-year-old center isn't tearing it up with just 23 points in 34 games on the year, but his recent strong play has us optimistic about him moving forward. Thornton has netted four power-play goals this season and is sporting a tidy plus-9 rating, so while the goals might not be at the number you would like, he still remains a valuable fantasy option in almost all leagues.
