NHL Star Jonathan Toews
December 24th, 2011
NHL star Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews is a true leader, All-Star and potential MVP candidate. Toews won the Conn Smythe Trophy last season months after he was named the most valuable player in the Olympics. According to Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville, Toews welcomes big challenges, and he's excited about Game 7 against the Canucks after winning three straight in this series.
Toews believes that the Blackhawks got to Game 7 not only because they've played well. He thinks it's their fate to get this far, after having come back from being down 3-0. He said he's been feeling confident in practice and has high energy and expectations for Game 7. So far, Toews has been scoreless in the Stanley Cup playoff games, but his team has found a way to win regardless. If he is able to get back to his usual form, it's likely the Blackhawks will be able to continue their advance beyond the Quarterfinals.
