Feeding Frenzy in San Jose Inevitable after Thornton Named Captain

Joe Thornton was named captain of the San Jose Sharks on Thursday. Reasons why? If his well-documented inability to win come crunch time wasn't enough, clearly it's because his toughness is beyond reproach. As you can see in this reinactment of David and Goliath, the Sharks' new capitain clearly lost to someone three feet shorter and two-hundred pounds lighter.The ironic part is that these two street fighters are now teammates, It might be a leap, but I'm guessing Scott Nichol didn't vote for Jumbo Joe. But, if it doesn't work out, the Sharks still have a competent leader in assistant Patrick Marleau to fall back on... oh, wait...
