Patrick Kane reveals where ex-teammate Jonathan Toews must sign when he returns to the NHL
The news of Jonathan Toews skating again has NHL fans buzzing, as it opens the door for a potential return. Patrick Kane, Toews' longtime Blackhawks teammate, shared his thoughts on the idea, and may have revealed where Toews will be landing.
Kane and Toews were the cornerstone of the Blackhawks' three Stanley Cup wins.
Toews stepped away from hockey at the end of the 2023 season to focus on his health but has recently hinted at a possible comeback.
Mark Lazerus of The Athletic asked Kane about Toews returning to the league.
Like many, Kane hopes Toews can return when he feels ready, pretty much stating that he would love Toews to return to Chicago.
Patrick Kane on a possible Jonathan Toews return:
«I think that would be amazing. You don't want to see him wear another jersey. You'd rather see him finish his career as a Blackhawk. But I don't know if that's in the cards. It would be a great story and good for the franchise.»
Kane said
For Kane, the idea of competing against Toews in the NHL is intriguing. The two have only faced off in international tournaments like the Olympics.
Toews has played 1,067 NHL games, scored 833 points (372 G, 511 A), and won three Stanley Cups.
His track record as a winner suggests he'd be welcomed back.
A potential return to the NHL could be an inspiring underdog story-one fans would love to see.
