Blackhawks Connor Bedard Receives Dangerous Headshot to the Jaw That He Had Surgery on Last Season
The Chicago Blackhawks game has had bad auspices to begin the bout, as the team is down 2-0 to start with the end of the 1st period near.
Petr Mrazek would give up a goal to Jonathan Huberdeau, and Nazeem Kadri early in the game.
While the Blackhawks would see obvious favoritism exercised by the NHL, as the Flames were able to get away with a penalty on Connor Bedard.
The player involved, #76 Martin Pospisil would receive no major discipline for the obvious elbow seen in the video below.
What's even more concerning is that the "hit" which was an elbow wasn't even registered on the ESPN site.
An absolute clown's way of handling what happened to Bedard.
The Blackhawks today have been unable to establish pressure in the Flames defensive zone.
They've also failed to establish their own way of neutralizing the Flames, which we saw against the Kraken.
What is going on?
The Blackhawks have had only seven shots on goal, while the Flames have doubled that, and have taken control of the game early.
With the help of the referees.
The Flames lead the way with 2-0, and the Blackhawks have to find the willpower to make them pay the next 40 minutes of the game.
Connor Bedard is a -1, with 6:37 TOI, 7 shifts played today, and 2 shots on goal.
Nick Foligno On Bedard
In a recent interview, Foligno was interviewed about mentoring Bedard.
Now, would be the perfect time for Foligno to figure a way to channel Bedard's competitiveness into something tangible on the ice against the Flames.
