Sloppy play in the second.

Announcer on CBC just said Thornton isn't a dirty player. Did he watch any game he played against Detroit in the playoffs? Of course this is also the same guy who wanted Abdelkader suspended for getting attacked

He's not a dirty player. The Wings (especially back then) were so soft that anything was perceived as dirty. Thornton has been a gritty player, but he doesn't cross the line. A lot more people would consider Abdelkader dirty than Thornton.

Meh he has his moments.

He's for sure gritty but some of his hits have been questionable. But there are players a lot worse than him by today's standards.
