Jonathan Toews is hanging up his skates.
The 38-year-old centre announced Friday that his National Hockey League career has come to an end.
Toews spent the 2025-26 season with the Winnipeg Jets, returning to the NHL after two seasons away due to chronic inflammatory response syndrome linked to a COVID-19 infection he had in early 2020.
Before his absence, Toews played 15 straight seasons with the Chicago Blackhawks. He was named captain before his second season and went on to win three Stanley Cups with Chicago (2010, 2013 and 2015).
Toews has also appeared in four all-star games, won the Conn Smythe Trophy (2010), Frank J. Selke Trophy (2013), and the Mark Messier NHL Leadership Award (2015), and is a two-time Olympic gold medallist with Canada (2010 and 2014).
Across 1,149 career games, the Winnipeg native accumulated 383 goals and 529 assists for a total of 912 points.
In his last NHL season with the Jets, Toews posted 29 points (11 goals and 18 assists) in 82 games.
He was originally drafted by the Blackhawks as the third overall pick in 2006.
