Jonathan Toews, the captain of the Chicago Blackhawks, has been one of the most consistent and successful players in the NHL over the past decade. However, his future in the league has become uncertain due to health issues that have kept him off the ice for one full season years back, and now the rest of the 2022-23 season.

Toews, who is 34 years of age, has been dealing with a mysterious illness that has affected his energy levels and overall health. He missed the entire 2020-21 season, and there is no clear timeline for his return for this year. This has led to speculation that he may be considering retirement.

According to a tweet by Mario Tirabassi, "2 sources say Jonathan Toews is 'seriously considering' retirement at the end of this season."

Toews has not made any public statements about his future in the NHL, but it is clear that he is taking his health very seriously. In a recent interview, he said that he is "just trying to get healthy" and that he is "taking things one day at a time."

If Toews does decide to retire, it would be a major loss for the Blackhawks and the NHL as a whole. He has been one of the league's best two-way players for over a decade, and his leadership on and off the ice has been a major factor in the Blackhawks' success. However, his health and well-being should be the top priority, and it is up to him to make the best decision for himself and his family.
