Jonathan Toews Is ‘The Mentalist’? Must Be, He Predicted The Vancouver Riots
By
Breaking: Chicago Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews is, like, a psychic medium or something. Why? Because he says he knew all along that Vancouverites would riot their ever-loving asses off after their beloved Canucks found a way to lose Game 7 at home against the Bruins. Toews is all too aware of the psychotic behavior Vancouver Canucks fans are capable of, not only because of his psychic abilities, but also due to the heated postseason rivalry his Blackhawks squad and the Canucks have enjoyed over the past several seasons.
“I kind of expected that,” said Toews, who was scheduled to leave Chicago on Tuesday to head to Las Vegas for the NHL Awards. “Those fans are crazy. When we beat them the last couple of years they were throwing stuff on the ice. They’re crazy fans and obviously passionate about their team. I kind of expected a reaction one way or another.”
While it’s all well and good that he kind of expected a reaction one way or another, why did Toews refuse to alert the authorities? Imagine the senseless violence and mayhem that could have been averted only if Toews had acted upon his instincts and adequately warned the city of Vancouver.
Wait. I know why: Jonathan Toews must be one of those self-loathing Canadians. Also, much like Simon Baker as Patrick Jane, he is also not a psychic.

Hawks’ Toews on Vancouver riots: ‘I kind of expected that’ [Chicago Breaking Sports]
i don’t think it was a stretch predicting riots. does anyone remember 94? did you expect people to act more mature?. silly man, the generations are only getting worse.stupid is as stupid does.
I don’t see where he made a prediction about the riots. All he said was he expected it due to previous incidences and knowing how the Nucks fans in Vancouver are very passionate about their hockey. I think Toews comment had nothing to do with being psychic.
Obviously, it’s just a moronic story from a moronic website. Written by some 40 year old virgin living in his mom and dad’s basement. Some people need to get a life.
I think I agree with you dude.
It has nothing to do with Toews,thats for sure.
“The Mentalist”…comical,at best!
Moronic…
Toews is just butthurt that Kesler made him look like a pansy during their series. The fans are not crazy, the lowlifes who came out using that hockey game as an excuse to riot would have done if the canucks had won too..it was not about the hockey game..so get your facts straight psychic Toews and try to stop pouting about losing to the Canucks. We have turned the page.
Jonny boy must have failed in his psychic abilities to recall Chicago fans throwing things not only on the ice but at Canuck fans in the stands. Selective thinking Jonny? Yeah those crazy canuck fans sure were psychotic when they were remaining in the stands giving the Bruins an ovation long after the Canucks left the ice after the stanley cup game. Thats called class, Jonny. The true hockey fans who were not there to cause trouble like certain other non hockey fans who had an agenda. How much are you charging for readings Jonny? 5 bucks a pop? Pfffttttt
C’mon man,Toews did and said nothing wrong,he said something that would be true in most REAL hockey town(Chicago & Boston included!).
You are right when you said that riot are caused by ppl with an agenda(1000max!)but the average fan staying around the place “to watch” does make the matter worse.I’m fr Montreal,so I’ve been trough many of those.And most of the time,if not always,its the ppl in the bars around the arena that make the riot possible for those “with an agenda”!
In Montreal,win or lose the cup,we get the riot…It must be the riots capital of North America!
IMO,the writer made a terrible article,with an even worse tittle!!!Toews just had the guts to say something true.He’ll lose his “guts” as he will get older.Why give a guy like you the chance to call him names?”I’ll shut my mouth and I will be all right!”
