In case you hadn’t noticed, the hype for Connor Bedard is real. The excitement around the presence of the 18-year-old started more than a month before he was even drafted. When it was announced that the Blackhawks had won the NHL lottery and would pick first overall in the 2023 Draft, the team made...
Let’s not beat around the bush: Thursday’s game against the Avalanche was a disaster. The team was bound to have some stinkers throughout the year, and the 4-0 loss was certainly one of them. And after keeping their lineup the exact same from Toronto into Colorado, head coach Luke Richardson has...
The Blackhawks wrapped up a brutal five-game road trip with a pretty gruesome loss last night, but it was a solid stretch of games in many aspects. Scheduled to open the season against five of the toughest outs in the NHL, Chicago surprised many by coming away with a pair of nice wins. Players like...
The Blackhawks have been celebrated throughout the offseason and the start of this campaign as having one of the deepest and most talented prospect pools in the entire NHL. On Wednesday, though, they were informed that the group would be getting a bit thinner. After suffering an upper-body injury...
An exhilarating night in Boston where multiple Blackhawks made their return to TD Garden and Connor Bedard notched his first goal was marred when top-line winger Taylor Hall left the game with what appeared to be a shoulder injury. After what head coach Luke Richardson called a “blindside hit” by...
Even in a tight, tough loss, Wednesday night’s game against the Bruins was a magical one. Connor Bedard got on the board with his first big-league goal, Arvid Soderblom played tremendously in his season debut, and Kevin Korchinski had himself a nice night. However, the promising matchup was marred...
Connor Bedard logged his first NHL point with an assist on the goal by Ryan Donato last night in his first professional regular-season game, but he was held out of the goals column. It was a game that any rookie would’ve been thrilled about - that is, any rookie but Bedard. He undoubtedly wanted...
It seems like it’s been a decade since the Blackhawks shocked the world and won the NHL Draft Lottery back in May. Perhaps it’s been years since then-17-year-old Connor Bedard was drafted - or maybe it’s been just four and a half months. Still, it felt like we were waiting forever for Chicago’s new...
The excitement for this year’s Blackhawks season is unquestionable - the team opens the year with a primetime matchup against the Penguins on ESPN Tuesday night. The roster has been completely upended and all eyes will be on Connor Bedard as he shares the faceoff circle with his idol, Sidney...
After far too many months of waiting, the offseason is finally over! The Blackhawks will begin their season Tuesday night in Pittsburgh in a game that will feature the long-awaited regular-season debut of Connor Bedard. After a wild (yet seemingly successful) offseason in Chicago, the new-look team...
As his players suited up for Tuesday night’s game against the Red Wings, Blackhawks head coach Luke Richardson gave young standout Colton Dach glowing remarks. “He’s got some really good skill to shoot the puck. Hopefully he gets another opportunity to show his stuff. We’ve been impressed with him...
It may have taken a bit longer than many had expected, but Connor Bedard is finally in the preseason scoring column. After threatening to score all night in Tuesday’s tilt against the Red Wings, Bedard put the puck in the empty net with just over a minute left in the game:...
