Given his recent announcement of his intent to step away from hockey, the reporters were curious to know when he plans on returning to the sport.

Toews responded candidly, revealing to Czech hockey reporter Robert Rampa that he has no intention of reconsidering his decision until after the end of next year's regular season.

As such, it appears that fans of the beloved player will have to endure a lengthy wait for a Taser verdict.
