It was a well-known fact this season that the untouchables in Chicago were captain Jonathan Toews, defenseman Seth Jones and star forward Patrick Kane. Earlier this season, Scott Powers of The Athletic reiterated that Kane and Toews will not be traded (unless they demand to be moved).
Since then, there’s been chatter than Kane might consider moving out of Chicago in order to get another shot at a championship. However, fans know how much Kane loves it in Chicago and how amazing their run from 2010 to 2015 was exciting. The same could be said about Toews, though he hasn’t played since January, 26th as he is sidelined with a concussion.
If the trade rumours have made fans worried, Adam Proteau of The Hockey News has offered the latest point of view on what might happen in Chicago. And according to him, the chances of seeing Kane and Toews in another NHL uniform are quite slim.
“Let’s be clear – it would take an extraordinary trade offer, or some displeasure between the team and the two stars that has never been hinted at, for Toews and Kane to be moved before this, or any deadline.”
Also:
“In winning three Stanley Cup championships, Toews and Kane cemented their links to Chicago forever. It will be extremely difficult for Hawks management to break those bonds, especially if the two of them prefer to remain in the Windy City for good.”
This could very well shut down all rumours - at least the ones leading up to the upcoming trade deadline - about Kane and Toews’ future in the Windy City.
