Blackhawks Announce Toews' Departure

Toews, who was drafted 3rd overall in 2006, has played an impressive 1066 games for the franchise and will make his 1067th and last appearance tonight.
"I've had a number of conversations with Jonathan throughout the season about his future with the Blackhawks, and recently, we had the difficult conversation that we won't be re-signing him this offseason. Tonight will be his final game as a Blackhawk, and it was very important to us to be able to provide the proper send off for Jonathan and our fans. He has done so much for this organization, and no matter where he plays next, we're excited our fans get the chance to show Jonathan exactly how much he means to them.
