Connor Bedard is unquestionably the most intriguing player in hockey right now and his peers are raving about the 18-year-old phenom in the midst of a five-game road stand to start his young NHL career.
Bedard, widely considered the best prospect to enter the league since Auston Matthews, has recorded points in each of his first three games and ahead of Monday’s contest against the Toronto Maple Leafs, all eyes are on the 2023 first-overall pick.
It’s worth noting that the Blackhawks did not make Bedard available Tuesday, despite being the story of the moment.
