Kopitar and S Thornton were linemates

"Anze Kopitar and Scott Thornton seem to be on the opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to ... well...everything. Aside from both being first-round draft picks, there would seem to be little else that these two Kings have in common.

Thornton is 35-years old and a 15-year veteran of the NHL, with 836 regular season and 79 post-season games on his resume. Kopitar is just 18 years of age and has yet to appear in an NHL game.

Kopitar is from Slovenia, a country that has never produced an NHL player. Thornton, meanwhile, is from Canada, a country literally synonymous with hockey.

That's interesting and kind of cool too. I guess that they have a little more in common now than both of them being first round draft picks.
