Oh Jonathan Toews, what don't I love about you? About Him: Jonathan Toews is currently the captain for the Chicago Blackhawks. And for all of the new hockey fans out there, his name is pronounced TAYVES not TO-EWS. He was born on April 29, 1988 in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. He was selected third overall in the 2006 NHL Entry Draft. Toews is currently the youngest captain in the NHL. He joined the Blackhawks in 2007-2008 and was nominated for the Calder Memorial Trophy as NHL rookie of the year. The following season he was named team captain, becoming the third youngest captain in NHL history at the age of 20. Toews has won a gold medal at the 2005 Wor
ld under 17 Challenge, the 2006 and 2001 World Junior Championships, the 2007 World champions, and the 2010 Winter Olympic Games. Toews won the 2010 Stanley Cup this year with the Chicago Blackhawks. He also won the Conn Smythe Trophy as the MVP for the playoffs. Toews plays the position of center and shoots lefty. He is 6'2" and 211 lbs ( who doesn't love tall guys!?!?) His teammates often call him Tayzer or Captain Serious because of his intense attitude on the ice. This guy is the entire package, he's successful, an amazing player, he's a leader, and as a plus he's tall and great looking:)
