PCM Posted February 4, 2007 Posted February 4, 2007 From the Winnipeg Sun: Blackhawks can wait Star's focus still on UND His not-so-distant future may be with the Chicago Blackhawks, but Jonathan Toews wants to take care of some unfinished business at the University of North Dakota before jumping to the pro hockey ranks. There is plenty of speculation Toews, a Winnipegger who has won consecutive gold medals for Canada at the World Junior Hockey Championship, will sign an entry-level contract and join the Blackhawks, who drafted him third overall this past summer, at the end of his NCAA season. But Toews is focused on trying to help the Fighting Sioux get back to the Frozen Four before he decides whether or not it's time to move to the next level. "It's one of the things I'm trying not to think about," Toews said last night before he was honoured prior to the American Hockey League game between the Manitoba Moose and Chicago Wolves. Quote
Sioux Posted February 4, 2007 Posted February 4, 2007 From the Winnipeg Sun: Blackhawks can wait Star's focus still on UND hopefully UND does really crappy in the playoffs so toews stays for another year...cross your fingers!! Quote
Siouxdonyms Posted February 4, 2007 Posted February 4, 2007 After the hockey season, he's gonzo. No Way! He's coming back so he can play with Team Canada again and get a 3rd gold! Quote
PCM Posted February 4, 2007 Author Posted February 4, 2007 No Way! He's coming back so he can play with Team Canada again and get a 3rd gold! Plus, he'll want UND to win back-to-back national championships like Denver and Minnesota. Quote
Siouxdonyms Posted February 4, 2007 Posted February 4, 2007 Plus, he'll want UND to win back-to-back national championships like Denver and Minnesota. I'd be happy with one to get the monkey off our back about not being able to win the big one since moving to the new Ralph, but two's good too! Quote
redwing77 Posted February 5, 2007 Posted February 5, 2007 After the hockey season, he's gonzo. He's going to shoot himself out of canons and have a chicken girlfriend named Camilla? Seriously, though, I agree with Shawn-O. Toews will be gone after the season ends. Quote
aleah Posted February 6, 2007 Posted February 6, 2007 Good for him getting honored at the games! Quote
Siouxfan_inDenver Posted February 8, 2007 Posted February 8, 2007 Toews is real young though, it'd be a good move to stick around UND one more season and develop physically some more. I'm hoping for this atleast. Quote
Sioux-cia Posted February 8, 2007 Posted February 8, 2007 I don't want him to go but I think he's going to be gone after this season. Quote
