This season was supposed to be better for Chicago Blackhawks fans. Young phenom Connor Bedard would have experience and he’d be joined by some of the other prospects in the system to usher in the new era of Chicago hockey. Veterans like Taylor Hall and Nick Foligno were still around to help with the process. While it wasn’t time to start thinking about the playoffs, fans also shouldn’t have to worry about what number Porter Martone would wear after getting selected with a top-three pick in the draft.
