Informal Winnipeg Jets media availability: Jonathan Toews

We’ve been seeing Winnipegger and three-time Stanley Cup champion Jonathan Toews on the ice with his teammates for the last couple of weeks as he becomes familiar with his new organization. Today we had a chance to speak to him for the first time since his introductory presser.

Topics:
1) What’s it like being back?
2) How does he feel physically so far? (1:23)
3) How many pre-season games would he like to play? (2:04)
4) How are his legs? (3:09)
5) Any first day jitters? (3:49)
6) What has support from former teammates meant to him? (4:49)
7) Does the muscle memory help the hands/faceoff? (5:47)
8) What’s it like being idolized by teammates? (6:56)
9) What did he miss about the game? (7:35)
10) Looking forward to playing in Chicago? (8:37)
11) What’s it like being back in Winnipeg? (9:36)

Working hard on a daily basis to provide the latest Winnipeg Jets and Manitoba Moose news for our readers and listeners. I also appear on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show every Saturday on our YouTube channel as well as the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show after every single Jets game. And I occasionally jump in the play-by-play booth at Canada Life to provide colour analysis during Manitoba Moose games.
