Quote "It's a weird thing," Toews said, "but I have dreams all the time that I leave pro hockey to go back to North Dakota to play at The Ralph again. It just shows how special my time was there and the amazing memories I have." Quote But he also spent time Friday reflecting on his two years at UND from 2005-07, beginning with his decision to attend college. Toews was the No. 1 overall pick in the Western Hockey League Draft, but opted to skip major juniors to attend UND. It was a controversial decision at the time. Toews was the only No. 1 overall draft pick in the WHL to never play in the league. "That was an interesting time in my life when things were moving really fast," Toews said. "I always catch so much flak from guys who played major junior, when they found out I was drafted as high as I was, and decided to play college hockey. It wasn't an easy decision, but looking back, I'm so thankful that I got to spend two years at North Dakota. Those are some of the best years of my life. I'm still really close with guys like Chay Genoway, Matt Watkins, Taylor Chorney, Ryan Duncan. . . we keep in touch, we text all the time." 1 Quote

I'd head back for that too. Timing worked out this past year when my son and I went back for a series during the Parise last shift. That was great to see. 2 Quote

Wait 3 years and do it when he gets into the HHoF and hang a Toews banner next to Belfour's 1 Quote

cberkas Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago Hear me out, Towes, Oshie, and Parise come back and play a year or two, but they change their names so no one knows 😉 Quote
