Toews recorded an assist with five shots on net and a plus-1 rating over a season-high 24:09 of ice time during Friday's loss to Columbus.

EDGE Analysis

It was just the second assist of the campaign for Toews, and he still hasn't scored a goal through the first five games of 2016-17. The reliable pivot's point total declined in consecutive seasons entering this year, and his slow start should be a touch concerning given the unproven supporting cast surrounding the top players in Chicago. Still, Toews has scored exactly 28 goals in three consecutive seasons and will receive enough offensive minutes to remain a solid fantasy asset. You probably shouldn't bank on the same production from him as you once could, though.
