Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews did not play a shift in the third period due to an apparent injury.
Now that the game is long passed, Blackhawks fans are losing sleep over the potential loss of their captain. Coach Joel Quenneville put some minds at ease, saying he?s ?hopeful? Toews will return to the lineup for Game Six in Boston on Monday night. He also stated that Toews suffered an upper-body injury on the play, and he neither confirmed nor denied a concussion.
There is a pretty good chance that Toews will dress in Boston for game six. He has been the heart and soul of the Blackhawks? offensive revival since the Game Three shutout, and with the Stanley Cup on the line, Toews will sacrifice anything to bring it home once again. He may not be as effective as usual, just like Marian Hossa in Game Four, but he will give the team everything he has, and that could be just enough to sneak by the Bruins one last time.
