Jonathan Toews Officially Made Blackhawks History Last Night
Last night will definitely be a night to remember for the Blackhawks, but not only because of the unfortunate outcome. Chicago's Captain reached a major Milestone Moment with his assist on Conor Murphy's second period goal; becoming the 8th Blackhawk in franchise history to record 500 of them.

With this accomplishment, he joins teammate Patrick Kane (762), as well as legends like Bobby Hull (549), Stan Mikita (926), and more.
One of the best things about Jonathan Toews is his ability to multi-task. While he's climbing the ladder of all-time assists, he's not skimping on his other skills, like winning face-offs.
The 34 year old was also recently recognized by The Athletic as Number 65 on their 100 Greatest Players list, lest anyone forget that when he's on his game, he is nearly unbeatable.
He's been Captain for 13 years, captained the Blackhawks for half their Stanley Cups, reached his 1000th game last season, gone through devastating injury, and came back ready to work. Last night gave us just one more example, and it looks like there's plenty more on the way.
