Saturday night, the Chicago Blackhawks faced the St. Louis Blues and this duel was one-sided. THE Hawksguided by a Connor Bedard in full possession of his means, crushed the Blues 6 to 2, which was also a first victory in preparatory games for them.
During this fight, Bedard allowed himself a harvest of three assists, but what caught the attention was rather this abrasive sequence between Zack Bolduc and him. Bedard remains a player who overflows with character, which sometimes leads him to get out of his depth.
Things stirred up and Bedard did himself justice by sending a clear message to Bolduc. Enough is enough. Bedard set his sights on Bolduc, but, without warning, his teammates came to his rescue.
During this waltz of exhibition games, Bedard stood out with six points, including five assists, in four games. During the 2023-24 calendar, he was sensational, winning the Calder Trophy, awarded to the best rookie of the year, thanks to a collection of 61 points in 68 games.
In short, Bedard seems in splendid form, he who, without suffering any injury, could conclude the 2024-25 campaign with a harvest of at least one point per game.
