Young guys will get opportunities on and off the ice that they otherwise wouldn't with T & K here. It's tough, but it's for the best.I don't understand not bringing them back. I understand it from an on ice standpoint, but these are two guys that resurrected the franchise, were the pillars in its most important time, and have been loyal faces for nearly two decades.
Who cares that someone like Jason Dickinson is more valuable at this point, what is there to lose in another season of play.
Like wtf.
At least they're giving Toews althe chance to be properly sent off, but unless he's confirmed retiring (which very well could be the case), I just don't get it.
And as for Kane... if he's in the same boat... man, the f***.
Jim can stay. Chelsea needed to go 5 years ago.And just like that, Chelsea Dagger and Jim Cornelison are going to be the only parts of the glory days still remaining.
Very sad day.
Please make that happen!Jim can stay. Chelsea needed to go 5 years ago.
I’m surprised Davidson made sure to get that point across rather than affording Toews a facade where it’s his decision.It very much reads like Davidson doesn't want him back, which is honestly a point in his favor.
Thanks for everything Jonny. Was at your first game as a Hawk. Might call off work to be at your last.
That might be what the ownership wants to see, more “young turk” and less “country club/old boys’ network” maybe?I’m surprised Davidson made sure to get that point across rather than affording Toews a facade where it’s his decision.
