19 Forever Teal: Joe and Tabea Thornton

[@mysticaledenflower4330]

His wife is such a wonderful woman, this interview was great, thank you all! Especially Joe for being a fantastic member of the Sharks for so long and entertaining us all those years

[@omaraemily]

I wish she talked more about San Jose as the community, not her knit picked season holders.

[@dracosamm]

Joe Thornton I’d like to thank you for leading Team Teal to its *first ever Stanley Cup championship appearance* in franchise history during *2015/16 season*

[@That90sShow]

How'd it turn out?? Lmao

[@johnhoward8668]

That is a very nice thing to say. I’m a huge Leafs fan, We loved Joe here. Austin Matthew’s is a class act, and he said one of his favourite friends of all time is Jumbo. That speaks so loudly. I can’t believe Boston ever traded him. 😊

[@insanum666]

​@@That90sShow Better than it did with the Arizona Coyotes

[@SuperSuperdude88]

LMFAO what a weird thing to say.

[@chrisbauman2562]

Joe is the whole package. What an awesome family. Living the dream

[@davidmartin5179]

Great interview, Joe crying at the end and getting up and leaving shows how great he is. And I wasn’t even that big of a Fan of his when he played. What an awesome life he has lived!

[@robertjmessenger]

As a Boston fan who's heart was broken a rainy morning before school when I heard the B's traded Thornton on the local sports news network, I'm glad it worked out for both teams and Thornton is a damn legend. Got this authentic B's jersey right next to me still. Demers, you're great at this!

[@MagicalTrev88]

Jumbo is an international treasure that must be protected at absolutely all cost.

[@John_2Much_Coffee]

This was awesome. Time sure flies. My old family doctor and friend (Dr Archie Grace, we would always talk hockey. He told me he brought Joe Thornton into this world, as he was the doctor that delivered him. He said I brought a great hockey player into the world.) Loved watching Joe play, was great having him part of Leafs too. Happy to see he has wonderful wife and family, Cheers!

[@Starclimber]

Habs fan by birth, Canucks fan by family move in the early 70s, and I'll be damned if the KZbin feed magic didn't turn me into a Joe and Tabea fan. Great interview by Jason as well!

[@jeffhammel5543]

"It felt like a little bit of San Jose, west coast, people maybe not considered or looked at as much" Speaking the absolute truth

[@korbendallas7181]

Bonus content YES!! Solo interview was great, watched it last night! Jumbo Joe forever!

[@ivanpojdl1620]

nice interview and providing insight how Tabea got from Davos to San Jose. I used to spent every xmas in Davos for the Spengler Cup. good memories

[@paulbaratta1566]

Forever a Bruin in my mind, once you were skating in Wilmington and my daughter hit the ice for figure skating right after (she was wearing her USA Jacket) and you took the time to do a few laps with her. It was amazing, and you were a gentleman and inspiration to a young woman who went onto Worlds.

[@hankvesuvius6305]

I’m stockpiling tissues for the retirement ceremony. Jumbo is all time!

[@carycwilliams]

Congrats Joe!! Always one of my favs

[@kihoonlee]

Missing Jumbo like crazy 🥺🥺🥺

[@gl9681]

What a great player and a even greater man.

[@DateMike22]

I thank Joe for all his contributions to the San Jose Sharks most notably our one and only Stanley Cup final appearance in the 2015-2016 season 🙏🏼. Can't wait to see Jumbo Joe's jersey retirement at the Shark Tank on Nov. 23 👏🏼👏🏼.

[@chrisdaddy4637]

Great guy! Loved the game

[@peterleonard7062]

Awesome! Terrific interview!

[@deanjohnston4073]

I feel like I just watched two carebears madly in love talk about life!!

[@Chris_Martin707]

Tabea is even more of a goat than the goat! Thanks JD for the interview and thanks to Jumbo for converting this former NFL fan to more of an NHL fan years ago.

[@johnleonard8311]

A Maine guy that loved Joe playing in Boston and like all hockey fans in New England was crushed when he was traded. Got to see Joe play one more time when he played the All Star game in Atlanta. Was the best player on the ice that night. I wish you could have played your career in Boston.

[@tjue4607]

Demy is awesome. Go go Demy. Very good interview

[@operasinger2126]

Thanks, Jason, Joe, and Tabea!

[@tjue4607]

Amazing family. Bleed teal. Women are amazing. Taking care of the fam.

[@omaraemily]

Looking forward to retirement night. Bittersweet night, but am so grateful for him to retire his jersey with the sharks!

[@jinnij.caiman]

T seems like she had a little bit of hurt from San Jose. I don’t blame her. But I’m glad she’s ok with him being there now. Jumbo Joe is a player who is irreplaceable in my eyes. Thank you Jumbo and T!

[@jagdhillon9778]

I felt that too

[@enricobertoletti]

Joe should have definitely been in the Top 100 NHL Players named. He was snubbed bye the entire NHL IMO. Great career Joe and enjoy your family now.

[@bruce8321]

A Canadian gift to the world. He is still a small town boy.

[@badmontingz1219]

:20 secs in and I want to say great job Jason at starting the interview with asking joes wife a question first and getting her involved... too many times we see the spouse of said athlete have to sit there like a wall flower and make them uncomfortable instead of involving them and making them feel apart of the "the party"... good job

[@andrewm753]

Oh my gosh, he adores her. That is amazing. Gord Downie had it right. Joe is a treasure.

[@SirJaymesDAudelée]

6:20 - that’s how it is for every family that brings their kid to hockey at every arena across Canada.

[@gastondeveaux3783]

It just took me 2 minutes to fall in love with her. What a sweetheart. ❤

[@thedrizzle619]

Joe Thornton, Joe Pavelski and Patrick Marleau the goats

[@timsimtv]

we love you joe!

[@TennyMckenzie]

Jumbo Joe you are a beauty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@jaymoraski]

Great interview. Bad move by Mike O'Connell, Jumbo Joe never should have left Boston.

[@That90sShow]

Joe's a loser. Biggest loser in history

[@Eugromlol]

jason did a good job

[@THAmyth444]

hi Joe !!!!!!

[@MapleSyrupPoet]

Good for Joe ...from my father's hometown 😅

[@dstrong4376]

Nice job JD

[@3lackavar]

Jumbo, Patty and Pavs absolutely deserve to be on that list. Absurd they were excluded.

[@Ryanlessardmusic]

look up "Ferda" in the dictionary.... you'll see a picture of Jumbo.

[@glennwilson6249]

Sad day when he left Boston…

[@dracosamm]

@@glennwilson6249 a happy day when he came to San Jose

[@petermills-c1h]

Hockey needs a new Hall of Fame for guys like Joe Thornton. Call it the NHL Hall of Hockey Excellence. Then they can shut down the politically correct DEI Hall in Toronto.

[@mrdave4714]

Ok Jumbo...time to shave!

[@leeanderson4794]

What an awesome woman , wonder if she has a sister 😉

[@billmcnally1011]

his hand on her thigh is so creepy

[@billmcnally1011]

worst beard of all time Deliverance

[@That90sShow]

Jumbo joke

[@leemantz3148]

Come on Joe, get rid of that beard. It's not cool, it look disgusting

[@prairieboypools]

Best to stay in your lane.
