Toews misses fourth straight game

CHICAGO (AP) — Chicago Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews missed his fourth straight game because of concussion-like symptoms, sitting out Friday night against Montreal.

Toews hasn't resumed skating after a crushing open-ice hit from Vancouver's Willie Mitchell on Oct. 21. Toews is listed as day-to-day.

``The progress hasn't been exactly where we wanted it,'' Chicago coach Joel Quenneville said. ``There's been some progress, but at the same time, we're just waiting to see.''

After Friday, the Blackhawks don't play again until Thursday night at Phoenix, followed by a game the next night at Colorado.

Quenneville said Toews will make the trip with the team.

``We've got the weekend here and a couple of days next week,'' Quenneville said. ``Hopefully we can get him back on the ice and back out there.''

Toews, in his third NHL season, has a goal and four assists in nine games. Last season, the 21-year-old center had a team-high 34 goals, and added 35 assists.
