Jonathan Toews Linked to Three NHL Teams by Top Insider Frank Seravalli
Following some serious time away from the league, top insider Frank Seravalli has linked former Chicago Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews to three NHL teams.
Jonathan Toews is undoubtedly a well-decorated former NHLer, having played over 1000 games and becoming a three-time Stanley Cup champion.
Having made such an important impact as the Chicago Blackhawks captain, it is no surprise that he received a standing ovation in his last game for the team, April 2023, against the Philadelphia Flyers.
Despite facing numerous health issues at 34 years old, Toews never officially retired from the league, sharing months later he would take some time off to focus on his health in hopes of returning when conditions allow.
However, these last few seasons have been very difficult considering my health challenges. My focus is to give myself the time and space to fully heal and enjoy life to the fullest once again. Along the way I have met several people who have struggled with health issues pertaining to long COVID, chronic immune response syndrome, and other similar cases that are quite complex.
I now recognize the importance of one day sharing the details of my health journey with you all. Thank you to all of you who have supported me and respected my privacy in the process."
Now, more than a year later, it seems the time for Toews to make an NHL comeback is not only possible, but just around the corner.
Toews recently detailed in an interview with GQ his healing journey in India, which he feels has helped him significantly with the ailments keeping him off the ice.
Now that he has a better grasp of his health, Toews shared that he is doing what he can to get back in the game.
Not long after the former Chicago forward's announcement, top NHL Insider Frank Seravalli shared on Sports on Prime Canada that Toews is already skating in top playing condition.
Moreover, Seravalli has already connected Toews to three teams looking for another forward to boost their depth heading into the second half of this season or the next: the Toronto Maple Leafs, Winnipeg Jets, and Colorado Avalanche.
Toews last played for the Chicago Blackhawks in the 2022-23 season, recording 15 goals and 31 total points in 53 games.
While there is no guarantee when or if Toews will return, should he recreate his last production rate, he could make a solid comeback as a third-line center.
