Jonathan Toews provides first public update on his physical condition

For the first time in months, there’s an update on Jonathan Toews from the captain himself.

On Wednesday morning, Toews posted a two-minute video on Twitter detailing the ailment that kept him sidelined for the entire 2021 NHL season.

The video opens with Toews heading into the team practice facility, with a voiceover from Toews narrating everything.

“It feels great,” Toews said. “It’s been a long time. Honestly, I haven’t taken this much time off of the ice since ... probably ever.”

“It’s nice to be back in Chicago and see some of the guys again.
