BREAKING: Canadian Team in Talks to Sign Jonathan Toews
According to recent reports, there has been communication between Jonathan Toews and the Edmonton Oilers in recent months.
With his contract set to expire on July 1st, several teams are looking to add depth and scoring options to their rosters by signing valuable players.
Toews, a Stanley Cup-winning veteran, ranks among the top 50 unrestricted free agents in the 2023 class. Rumors suggest that the Oilers may consider revisiting Toews for a chance to pursue another championship title. If Nick Bjugstad departs the team, Toews could be a valuable addition as a depth option.
Considering his health concerns, it is likely that Toews may only receive a value contract in the range of $1.15 million for one year.
Despite this, his presence would bring veteran leadership and a strong scoring option off the bench. In the previous season, Toews played 53 games, recording 15 goals and 16 assists for a total of 31 points. With his impressive track record as a first-round pick and three-time Stanley Cup champion with the Chicago Blackhawks, Toews would undoubtedly contribute a wealth of experience to any team fortunate enough to sign him.
