Huge Turnaround Regarding Jonathan Toews
After a short 53-game season due to COVID-19, former Chicago Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews announced a few months ago that he would officially leave the team at the end of the 2022-2023 season.
While many experts stipulated that Toews might take one last lap with a new team, it is becoming increasingly likely that the 35-year-old veteran will announce his retirement.
Indeed, according to information reported by Mark Spector of Sportsnet, Jonathan Toews' name was not even on the list of free agents sent to various general managers by his agency, implying that retirement is probably the option chosen by the 35-year-old player.
"They say Toews will not play next season. When his agency sent its list of pending free agents, we are told his name was not even on it." - Mark Spector
In 1067 games played since his NHL debut, Jonathan Toews has accumulated an impressive total of 372 goals and 511 assists (883 points), also winning three Stanley Cups with the Chicago Blackhawks. Considered one of the best leaders in the NHL, it would be a significant moment in history if he actually announces his retirement.
