Toews Still in Protocol. Will We See Him Soon?

The 33-year-old Toews got hurt during Chicago's 8-5 win at Detroit, but he played through the game. The center reported symptoms to the team's medical staff on Thursday.

'We're going to miss him, but we're making sure we do the right thing by this,' interim coach Derek King said. 'and there's no timeframe. It's when he's feeling right. You can't mess around with this stuff, so we'll just go day by day every day and see how he's feeling.'

Newly Acquired Sam Lafferty commented on his absence: 'He's obviously our leader. He drives the bus for this team,' . 'So we're definitely going to miss him and I think just collectively everyone's got to pull a little bit more.'

Toews has four goals and 15 assists in 43 games after he missed all of last season with what he described as chronic immune response syndrome. He also has a 58.6 faceoff win percentage.

Will Jonathan Toews make it back before the end of the season? Is it even worth it considering the current status of the Hawks? Could we have seen the last of him? What are your thoughts?
