Eklund: Toews season in doubt due to medical issue, Buzzcast at 3:30

Thanks, Eklund

“These last couple of years, the hype train has diminished and It’s become obvious that I’m not as good as people said I was when I was surrounded by talent on cap circumventing contracts, so I’m going to take time off until the rebuild is over. Because rebuilds suck... Can I still get paid? Like, can we pretend this is some kind of injury, or like equipment allergy?”

this!

So I guess Toews + Keith for Doughty is off the table then? Too bad.

You did also mention Kane + Keith for Doughty. So maybe give that an E3 to get some conversation going.

Moron!

this!

Man, if this is isn't 100 I don't know what is. Hawks are the kings of cap scamming though so who knows what they're up to.

This sounds about right. Or he went to team and said I'm not super interested until playing until COVID is over. Team was like why don't you just go LTIR with some mystery illness and we just burn another contract year in the process.

Or maybe....and call me CRAZY for suggesting this...just MAAAAAAYYYYBE the guy is actually sick??

But I wouldn’t expect a bunch of fans of rival teams to have the brain capacity to fathom this possibility. It’s ok.

Lot of Hawks are sick of being a Hawk......

I suspect his equipment.

Just in time for the rebuild, I don't believe in conspiracies so I'll call it an incredible coincidence

Just early start on the commitment to tank.

yeah, and Rask's kid had a "medical condition".

she probably needed tubes in her ears

Tampa Bay are the current Kings of cap-circumvention.

That's what I was wondering. Hopefully not for his sake, but it would be huge for that community to have someone like Toews to help bring awareness.

We just lost Dach for 5 months.

Our goaltending tandem is Collin Delia and Malcolm Subban.

I'm a bit concerned about Covid.

Let's take a year off. Insurance will still pay me. I'll come back next year.

Or maybe he just didn't want to be part of the blockbuster trade for Doughty (E4).

It's a negotiation tactic to get Hoffman to sign with Chicago. Hawks are clearing cap space. Habs are still the favourites.

ottawa has extra centermen stepan or Anisimov

Sounds like he has the Rebuildanitis

I've sworn up and down for the past few years that I have it but people always laugh at me and think it's a made-up illness.

Pat Buchannon from The Blue Nile has it, supposedly, and that's how I found out about it.

All joking aside, no matter how much I sleep, change my diet or habits, work or don't work, I always feel tired. It wasn't always like this but definitely noticed it more after the age of 30.

Depression and anxiety play a huge role, as do a lot of other things, I think. But I think it's a legit condition.

The timing is purely coincidental.

Is he serious?
