TORONTO — As the Sharks prepare for Wednesday’s showdown with the Toronto Maple Leafs in Canada, an unsolved mystery engulfs the team: what happened to the chunk of hair that Nazem Kadri ripped out of Joe Thornton’s beard?
Is it being preserved in a fridge? Prepared for sale on eBay? Maintained for a future display at the Hockey Hall of Fame?
After a full-scale probe, the whereabouts of the Thornton chunk continues to baffle investigators. Rumor is that Robert Mueller is planning to jump on the case as soon as he’s finished with that other little thing he’s working on.
