Blackhawks' Jonathan Toews: Won't play Saturday
As expected, Toews (back) won't be in the lineup for Saturday's matchup with the Flyers, Mark Lazerus of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Analysis:
Toews was previously considered doubtful for Thursday's contest, so this news doesn't come as much of a surprise. The 28-year-old pivot was able to return to practice Friday, which is clearly a big step in the right direction, and suggests he may be ready to return to action as soon as Sunday against the Jets.
