Yeah, I heard he changed his diet. Seems to be paying off.
Good for him.
Where'd you hear that? I haven't seen it reported.

I know people who know him.Where'd you hear that? I haven't seen it reported.
Since 8 years you come to every Toews thread on main board telling people he is overrated...No one hates him, that’s just something you have to tell yourself to make sense of people thinking he is overrated....Your getting this excited over one game, something obviously is off
He’s like Happy Gilmore without ChubbsFunny how he hasn't scored 30 goals in 8 years with one of the best shots in the league.

Over the years, he’s only played with Kane on their typically anemic power play and in OT. Not expecting any changes.I said at the end of last season in one of the residential Toews threads that he could have a bounce back year this season. Now I don't expect 90–100 points a la Kopitar/Giroux (because they've always had a little more jam or flair offensively) but if he plays some with Kane I don't think 80–85 points is out of realm. Toews seems like a player who's too proud, serious and grumpy to let the haters get the last word. Much like Crosby in the 16 & 17 playoffs after a bunch of consecutive playoff failures.
Toews went from overrated to underrated pretty fast.Because he is. He’s no kadri
Including the OT game winner. Vintage Toews so far this year.
It never gets said but Toews legit has one of the best shots in the league.

Toews went from being the most overrated player to the most underrated
2 games, but he has looked better this year. Has a little giddy up in his step that has been missing for the past two years.It's been two ****ing games lmao.
It’s his “praise” I suppose that tends to get glorified without any context behind it. He does deserve everything he has worked for, just the status and legacy that has come with it created a monster. Now many Hawks fans think everyone who thinks something else of him hates him or doesn’t think he’s good. I feel the backlash has been warranted, not his fault, but the fault of the media and many many fans who like to categorize him as a player he really isn’t. It’s not black/white though, but that’s how many see it.Ok, I see what you're saying. I'm not sure entitlement is the right word, since it suggests feeling owed something without working for it. And Toews if nothing else, has worked for his success. The debate over whether he gets more credit than deserved for said success (at least the team success) is external and separate from his own personal mindset.
But yeah, it's kind of tough to think of a single word for... I don't know, 'disproportionate reverence'?
I didn’t say that, I quoted a poster who got so excited over one game, two games into the season, following it up with how fans “hate” him. I simply corrected him. Get your facts straight before coming at me.Since 8 years you come to every Toews thread on main board telling people he is overrated...
Why do you care so much? I’m simply discussing while your up in arms about god knows what, complaining about what I’m saying. If what I’m saying holds no value to you, why get triggered?Over the years, he’s only played with Kane on their typically anemic power play and in OT. Not expecting any changes.
Why anyone engages GG in a Toews thread is beyond me. Of his 6092 current post tally, likely 5000 or more are regarding Toews, and overwhelmingly disparaging to Toews. It’s completely tiresome.
