While waiting for the NHL to have an established plan, Thornton will play a third stint with HC Davos.
Joe Thornton has a deep-rooted history with the Swiss club that dates all the way back to the early 2000s.
First and foremost, Switzerland is his home during the offseason and has been for a significant amount of time. That is why the announcement does not come as a surprise at all.
