Rangers Interested in Trading for Joe Thornton?

Kevin Paul Dupont of the Boston Globe is reporting that the New York Rangers will make a "real play" for San Jose Sharks' captain Joe Thornton. 


Here's more of what he had to say:

Nash and Thornton were magic together in Davos, Switzerland, during the last lockout, and have paired like hand and glove in the Olympics for Team Canada. Thornton would have to allow the Sharks to make the deal, but it’s probably a good time for him to go. He has played 1,077 games — 545 with the Sharks, 532 with the Bruins. Still without a Cup 

 Of course, all this is pure speculation, and I seriously doubt that the Sharks would be willing to part with Joe Thornton for anything.
