Joe Thornton and his beard are going to the Stanley Cup Final. Say it out loud.
And "Jumbo Joe" couldn't care less which team comes out of the Eastern Conference.
"I'll play 'em both, if they want to dress 40 guys," Thornton said.
The Stanley Cup Final begins Monday, in Pittsburgh if the Penguins win, and in San Jose if the Tampa Bay Lightning win.
