Toews calls time on a 16-season NHL run after three Cups with Chicago
Jonathan Toews announced his retirement after 16 NHL seasons, ending a standout run that included three Stanley Cup championships with the Chicago Blackhawks and a Conn Smythe Trophy in 2010. He finished his career with the Winnipeg Jets in 2025-26 after two illness-related absences, posting 912 points in 1,149 games between Chicago and Winnipeg. As Blackhawks captain from 2008 and part of a famed core with Patrick Kane and Duncan Keith, Toews also earned Olympic gold (2010, 2014) and the Selke Trophy (2012-13). His final years were affected by Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome and long COVID, but Jets captain Adam Lowry lauded him as a winner and a great leader.
