Jonathan Toews, the long-time captain of the Chicago Blackhawks, has had an illustrious career in the NHL. However, his future in the league has become uncertain due to health issues that have plagued him for some time. Toews missed the entire 2020-21 season, and now he is set to sit out the rest of the 2022-23 season due to his ongoing health concerns.
Toews, who is 34 years old, has been struggling with a mysterious illness that has affected his energy levels and overall health. This has led to speculation about his future in the league, with some suggesting that he may be considering retirement. In fact, according to a tweet by Mario Tirabassi, "2 sources say Jonathan Toews is 'seriously considering' retirement at the end of this season."
Toews has not made any public statements about his future in the NHL, but it is clear that he is taking his health very seriously. In a recent interview, he said that he is "just trying to get healthy" and that he is "taking things one day at a time." It is evident that Toews is prioritizing his health and well-being above all else.
If Toews does decide to retire, it would be a major loss for the Blackhawks and the NHL. He has been one of the league's most consistent and successful players over the past decade, and his leadership on and off the ice has been a major factor in the Blackhawks' success. However, his health should be the top priority, and it is up to him to make the best decision for himself and his family.
