Thornton camp not thrilled with offer
It's believed the Bruins offered the restricted free agent a five-year deal around $25 million US, which averages to less than Thornton's qualifying offer of $5.13 million.

As one of the top five players in hockey, Thornton will command the maximum $7.8 million cap figure over five years, and there are probably 29 NHL teams in line to pay it.
Should the Bruins make it 30 and take care of this right now? It's a difficult question in a cap league -- investing 20 percent of the budget into any one player not named Bobby Orr.

Not true! Several teams have "cap trouble" and $ 7,8 Million is out of question. And then there are teams like Minnesota - they are not paying top dollar to anybody... In real life I guess only 1 or 2 teams (if even they) could be willing to pay 7,8 to the guy who has been as hard case as Thornton! I mean Thornton has been very stiff on economic questions all his career in Boston...

The NHL club upped the ante this week with Thornton, offering a $32.5-million US, five-year deal - an average of $6.5 million per season. That's up from the $25-million, five-year deal offered last month.
