Although Bedard will not be able to play on ice, he will participate in his current sponsor's activity in the All-Star Game - the Sherwood showcase on Saturday.

Bedard will show his shooting capabilities in a skills competition, alongside other NHL All-Stars. While he is not officially cleared to play on ice, fans can still enjoy watching him perform on Saturday while he continues to heal.

Although, unfortunately, Bedard will not participate in the main All-Star game, this is still a great opportunity for fans to see him in action and support him in his recovery.
