San Jose Sharks center Joe Thornton has moved into 20th on the NHL's all-time scoring list.
He's won both the Art Ross and Hart trophies (2006), a World Junior Championship (1997), the World Cup of Hockey (2004, 2016), and an Olympic gold medal (2010).
He does not, however, have his name on the Stanley Cup.
All things considered, we ask if he's an automatic to be named to the Hockey Hall of Fame once he hangs up his skates.
