Toews logged an assist and one shot on goal over 22:52 of ice time in Tuesday's 7-4 win over the Islanders.
EDGE Analysis
Both Toews and Mikko Rantanen were credited with assists, but the goal was all Cale Makar. During an offensive foray, a pass slipped by Makar at the point. As Makar gathered the loose puck in the neutral zone, Toews watched his blue line partner head toward the net, skate around several Islanders, then lift a backhander past Ilya Sorokin. It was the third assist and fourth point for Toews, who has the pleasure of being paired with one of the game's best players.

Toews scored a goal on three shots and went plus-2 in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Blackhawks.
EDGE Analysis
Toews found the back of the net in the second period for his first goal of the season. The 29-year-old blueliner has enjoyed a productive start to the year with three points, seven shots on net, five blocked shots and a plus-6 rating over four appearances. While his power-play time is minimal on the second unit, he continues to impress with his play in all zones at even strength.

Toews posted a shorthanded assist and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Kraken.
EDGE Analysis
Toews helped out on a Logan O'Connor goal in the second period. Through three contests, Toews has two assists, five blocked shots and a plus-4 rating. The 29-year-old defenseman signed a seven-year, $50.75 million extension just after the season started, locking him in as a part of the Avalanche's top-four for the remainder of the decade, and he's living up to the role in the early going this year.

Toews and the Avalanche agreed on a seven-year, $50.75 million contract extension Friday, Peter Baugh of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
It was thought that the two sides would not come to an agreement as Toews had said earlier that he had set the first game of the season as his deadline for negotiations. The Avalanche opened the season Wednesday, but both sides continued to negotiate and an agreement was finally reached. Toews had seven goals and 50 points in 80 contests last season, a rate of production the 29-year-old blueliner should be able to provide for a majority of his new contract.

Toews posted an assist, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Toews set up a Mikko Rantanen tally in the second period. The 29-year-old Toews continues to play second fiddle to Cale Makar on the Avalanche's blue line, but there's enough power in this offense for both defensemen to be productive. Last season, Toews produced 50 points, 138 blocked shots and a plus-39 rating over 80 contests, and a similar season is wholly possible in 2023-24.

Toews registered three assists in Colorado's 4-1 victory over Seattle in Game 6 on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Toews recorded his third multi-point game in six first-round contests, and he's supplied a goal and eight points in that span. He also had four hits and three blocks Friday, bringing him up to 11 and six, respectively, in the postseason. Toews, who has averaged 23:42 of ice time in the 2023 playoffs, will continue to play an important role for the Avalanche when they face Seattle in Game 7 on Sunday.

Toews logged an assist and three hits in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Kraken in Game 5.
EDGE Analysis
Toews was back on the top pairing with Cale Makar (suspension) out. The 29-year-old Toews is up to one goal, four assists, nine shots on net, seven hits and a plus-3 rating through five playoff contests. He'll continue to see time in a top-four role, though Makar's return for Friday's Game 6 likely means Toews will head back to the second power-play unit.

Toews recorded two assists, three shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 6-4 win over the Kraken in Game 3.
EDGE Analysis
This was Toews' second multi-point effort of the postseason, and his third such game in his last four outings. The 29-year-old defenseman has a goal, three assists, eight shots on net, three hits, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in three playoff games. He continues to play a key role in the Avalanche's top four.

Toews scored a goal on three shots, added an assist and logged two hits in Thursday's 3-2 win over the Kraken in Game 2.
EDGE Analysis
Toews helped out on Valeri Nichushkin's game-tying tally in the second period before netting the winner himself with 7:01 remaining in the third. Over his last nine games, Toews has contributed two goals and 10 assists. He played on the second pairing with Samuel Girard in Thursday's game -- typically, Toews has been partnered with Cale Makar on the top pairing, so it'll be interesting to see if the new alignment sticks.

Toews had a goal and an assist in Colorado's 4-3 win over Nashville on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Toews opened the scoring early in the first period and then assisted on Nathan MacKinnon's goal to push the Avalanche up 2-0. He's been held off the scoresheet only once over his last seven contests, giving him a goal and 10 points in that span. Toews has finished the regular season with seven goals and 50 points in 80 appearances.
