Within the last week or two, there were two reports regarding his injury, which the Hawks only labeled "upper-body" because of course they did.
First, Trib reporter Chris Hine reported that it was NOT a concussion. Then, another Trib reporter in Chris Kuc said it was a back injury.
I'm inclined to believe both of them.
But the reason I brought this up is this: We've all seen Toews struggle for much of last season and even moreso this season. Toews has certainly taken a physical beating over the years, as I never thought of him as the type to avoid contact or a board battle. But are any of you worried about a potential back injury having some serious ramifications for Toews' career? Those things can be devastating to a hockey player.
