Speculation: What’s going on with Jonathan Toews?

[AddyTheWrath]

Last I heard he was likely retiring, but I thought insiders were saying he would be making a decision shortly after FA opened in July?

Seems weird we haven’t heard anything official yet, one way or another.

 

[Voight]

I imagine if he wants to continue playing, hell decided by training camp.

Hes an all time competitor so if he wants to play hes going to be all-in.

 

[Mrfenn92]

Nothing but time

 

[Sparksrus3]

If he is still injured the Isles will give him a nice Andrew Ladd Special 7 years 38.5 million

 

[StewieP19]

Hope he can find a contender team.

 

[Finlandia WOAT]

Hopefully he goes to the Ducks.

Then I won't get stumped whenever the Ducks/Blackhawks comes up on Puckdocku

 

[Toby Flenderson]

I know he’s old and injury prone but still think he’s got enough in the tank to be a hell of a 3C for a year or 2. Plus we love old players.

I would love for the Pens to somehow get rid of Carter and sign JT

Right the cosmic wrong of 2006 and Avengers Assemble Crosby, Malkin, and Toews down the middle.

Crosby, Malkin, Toews, Letang, Karlsson. If only it were 2013, that would be absurd to even consider.

 

[Luigi Lemieux]

Might as well get Kane and Toews and go for a true geriatric cup

 

[Trash Panda]

Hopefully he goes to the Ducks.

Wisnewski dawg

 

[Chet Manley]

Seems his health is going to decide this. A personal matter so hard to speculate on that. Especially if it's still issues with COVID since it's only a 4 year old disease.(they grow up so fast)

 

[SEALBound]

Mandela Effect...I swear there was an announcement that he retired?

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

I could see him taking half the season off and joining a contender in January.

Hopefully he goes to the Ducks.

Chad Kilger FTW!

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Honestly thought he'd sign a 1 year deal at like a mill with the Jets.

Europe ?

KHL ?

still may, maybe he wants to see what teams are in a playoff spot come the 20 game mark or mid way point. Who knows. Does not have to do a thing .

 

[Howie Hodge]

At this stage of his career, if he wants to continue, I'm sure he'll sign with a contending club. No point in just hanging on with a rebuilding club for the sake of extending his career. It should be interesting if he feels well enough, and signs on somewhere....

 

[Toby Flenderson]

I don’t even see this as that outlandish, as long as Kane’s contract demand aren’t that high. And they shouldn’t be.

Rust could easily be traded. Carter would be a harder deal. But I would swap those 2 out for Kane and Toews in a heartbeat

 

[CallMeShaft]

I think he's done.

Though Hossa is having a 'Goodbye Game' filled with tons of former teammates and NHLers (lots of old Hawks, Chara, Gaborik, etc) in less than two weeks and Toews is on the list; so Johnny is lacing them up for that game at least.

 

[Bandit]

Crosby, Malkin, Toews, Letang, Karlsson. If only it were 2013, that would be absurd to even consider.

Kings tried this with Iginla and Lecavier about 10 years too late. Didn’t end well.

 

[Nikolajs Sillers]

Europe ?

KHL ?

Defenetely not.

 

[dirtydanglez]

hes keeping quiet, real quiet.

 

[GoldenSeal]

Retire a Hawk JT.
