This past Sunday night against the Anaheim Ducks at the Honda Center, Jumbo Joe - aka San Jose Sharks forward (and hockey legend) Joe Thornton - reached another feat by surpassing Bryan Trottier in the NHL all-time points-leader standings.
This six-time NHL All Star now sits 16th in the all-time points list with 1,426 points, not too far off from recently inducted Hall of Famer Teemu Selanne, who has 1,457.
As Thornton builds on his legacy, we want to know if you remember some facts from some of the other milestones in his career.
