He was then traded to the Montreal Canadiens on September 6, 1996.Recent Years
Thornton saw his next trade on January 22, 2000, going to the Dallas Stars. He entered free agency after the season and signed with the San Jose Sharks on July 1, 2000. He played a total of five seasons with the Sharks, then signed as a free agent with the Los Angeles Kings on July 1, 2006, to a reported two year, $3 million contract.
