Jonathan Toews' Teammate Reveals The Real Reason Why He is Leaving Chicago
Chicago Blackhawks fans were left shocked but not entirely surprised yesterday when they found out that Jonathan Toews would not be returning to the team. The Blackhawks have been in a multi-year rebuild, and as a result, many players have not wanted to stick around.
While fans initially believed that it was Toews' decision not to return, a report from Mark Lazerus of The Athletic revealed that Toews had informed his teammates that the Blackhawks would not be re-signing him. According to Toews' teammate MacKenzie Entwistle, the conversation was casual, and nothing formal had been announced when he was told at the time.
MacKenzie Entwistle said Jonathan Toews told the guys in Seattle that the Blackhawks wouldn't be re-signing him. Nothing formal, just casual talks with teammates in the meal room.
With the loss of Toews, the Blackhawks will have to rely on their younger players to step up and fill the void.
