BLOG: Turcotte on growing up a Toews fan

There's no test at the 2019 NHL Combine for "narrative" or "storybook rating," but at least for the Blackhawks, Alex Turcotte would measure off the charts.
13 years after Chicago snagged Jonathan Toews with the third pick at the 2006 NHL Draft in Vancouver, the Draft is back in British Columbia and the team is back with the third pick. Turcotte would certainly appreciate the history if he becomes the Blackhawks selection in 2019.
"Growing up in Chicago, [Toews] is definitely an idol of mine," he said. "Watching the Hawks all the way up, I would be lucky to be half as good as him."
