According to a report from Chicago Blackhawks correspondent Charlie Roumeliotis of NBS Sports - Chicago, Jonathan Toews has not skated with the team due to an illness for the fourth straight day.

In Roumeliotis' words, the situation is "starting to feel a little unusual."

Toews previously missed the entire '20-21 NHL season to an illness, which has been identified as chronic immune response syndrome. Toews' current illness has not been confirmed, but the fear of Hawks fans is that their captain is dealing with CIRS once again.

There is no outright cure for CIRS, so patients are limited to treatments and prescription medications. There remains a chance that CIRS can flare up at any moment.

Still, we await word from the Blackhawks on just how serious this illness is for Toews. The 34-year old has 28 points in 46 games for the bottom-feeding Blackhawks. Toews has appeared in trade rumors all season, as well.

As such, there are several unknowns in the future of Jonathan Toews.
