The March 3 trade deadline is about a month and a half away, and Jonathan Toews is still wrestling with a decision about his future.
In an exclusive interview with NBC Sports Chicago, Toews opened up about where he’s at mentally and what he might be thinking. He and Patrick Kane are in a unique situation, and at some point soon, a decision will have to be made about where they want to finish the season.
“For myself, it’s still a difficult question to answer cause there’s a part of myself that doesn’t really want to admit the situation and also wants to continue being a Blackhawk and finish my career here,” Toews said. “But at the same time, there’s a part of me that sees the writing on the wall and sees that this team, this organization is trying to hit the reset button and that maybe a change for everybody is not such a bad thing, and that goes for myself as well.”
Toews said the outside noise hasn’t been “too distracting” to this point. But that’s because even he’s not sure what’s going to happen.
