<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Kyle_Davidson</b></div><div>You just repeated yourself and didn’t explain why it’s disrespectful. Giving Toews an option to play playoff hockey is not disrespectful, and GM’s talk about trades without players knowledge constantly. For all intents and purposes this scenario is trading his rights (with his consent) and giving him a shot on a contender (which he can choose to play for whenever he’s ready).

My understanding is that he wouldn’t be traded because he doesn’t believe it’s fair because he’s not 100%. What if a GM said I don’t care I want him?</div></div>

Use common sense and it explains why it’s disrespectful

Read his press release and then ask yourself, would you appreciate if the hawks didnt at all respect the wishes of yours even though they claimed they did? So the hawks aren’t being patient and respectful of the situation by coming back to him 2 weeks later with a trade idea. So the hawks aren’t supporting his wishes for the season and trying to change his mind asking him to waive. That’s why it’s disrespectful.

The only way this changes if toews and toews alone approaches the team and has a change of heart

Considering how toews has been one of the most protective players in regards to public perception of him, there is basically 0 chance he reconsiders. Someone as calculated as he is doesn’t put out a press release unless he’s 100% certain this is what he’s got to do. He’s not going yo change his mind now
