The coming night will be the final chapter of a long and beautiful NHL story.
Chicago Blackhawks captain and teammate for many years Jonathan Toews34, will play his last match for the team.
The thing is certain, because both the club and the player have said that the contract, which ends with next night’s match, will be the last between the parties. The expired eight-year contract was worth $84 million.
The triple booking of the summer 2006 booking event has represented Chicago throughout his NHL career. He got the captain’s letter C on his chest already in the 2008–2009 season. The relationship with the club is so strong that the Canadian forward’s career cannot be seen continuing in another club.
“Captain Serious” was an essential part of the Blackhawks’ dynasty in the last decade. As captain, he led the team to three Stanley Cup victories. He was chosen as the most valuable player of the playoffs once.
In addition, the triple club member has won Olympic gold and the world championship.
This season, Toews has scored 30 (14+16) power points in 52 games. The balance of the entire career is 882 (371+511) points for 1,066 regular season matches.
Health problems slowed down Toews’ final years of play. Toews said in February that he suffered from long-term aftereffects of the corona virus and autoimmune diseases. It kept him out of several games this season as well.
