Multi-billion dollar company disrespects Blackhawks legend Jonathan Toews
ESPN released a list of the Top 25 NHL Athletes of the 21st Century and it is a whose, who of famous players, Stanley Cup winners, and arguably the greatest athletes in the NHL ever.
But ESPN neglected to mention Patrick Kane's right-hand man during the Chicago Blackhawks dynasty, Jonathan Toews.
He was a three-time Stanley Cup winner, the longest-tenured Blackhawks captain, and played in Chicago his entire NHL career.
The list is purely controversial, considering they have Evgenii Malkin in over Jonathan Toews.
Even Alex Ovechkin is a stretch, who only won one Stanley Cup and pales in comparison to Toews's accomplishments.
I mean, of course, we're biased, but Jonathan Toews is NOT a Top 25 NHL Player of this century? C'mon ESPN. REALLY? Brock Faber has a new contract and we're wrapping up your Mailbag questions as well.
