Jonathan Toews' NHL return is almost upon us, and now, his agent has reportedly narrowed down his list of suitors to 3-4 teams, according to a top insider.

While some believed Jonathan Toews' NHL career had come to an end, he's set to make a stunning comeback in 2025/26, with his agent fielding plenty of interest ahead of free agency this summer.
There's already been plenty of teams linked to the former Chicago Blackhawks captain, and now, it has been reported that Toews wants to find his new NHL home before the 2025 NHL Draft in late June.
According to further reports from Pierre LeBrun, he's narrowed down the list of teams he could sign with to 3-4, and while the Winnipeg Jets and possibly the Colorado Avalanche are known as options for the Manitoba native, it's unclear who the others are.
«Pat Brisson, the agent for Jonathan Toews, has heard from multiple teams regarding interest in his client, who is returning to the NHL next season. But Brisson is keeping the list of real suitors down to three or four teams, max.

The Winnipeg Jets, as discussed before, are one of those teams. I wonder about the Colorado Avalanche as an option as well, but regardless of where it goes, Brisson already has it narrowed down to a tight list.»
At 37-years of age without having played an NHL game since April of 2023, there's major risk involved with signing Toews, but given how productive he was even at the end of his career, he could at the very worst still be a good 3C on a contending team, while potentially being a fantastic 2C.
We won't need to wait long to see where he ends up next, and if he can even be 75% of the player he once was in Chicago, he could end up being a fantastic signing for a contender in 2025/26.
