Jason Dickinson's Harsh Words for Teammate Connor Bedard: "It Doesn't Matter"

The Chicago Blackhawks should be winning by all means, with the amount of talent GM Kyle Davidson brought in during the offseason, they shouldn't be in the spot they're in.

At 8th in the Central Division with a 20-39-9 record frustration is starting to show. So much so that veteran Jason Dickinson was the next in line to criticize Connor Bedard and the team after their 6-2 loss to the Seattle Kraken.

The team has lost five in a row, and sophomore Center Connor Bedard remains on a points drought, dating back to March 7th.

He hasn't scored a goal or point in that time frame.

That frustration we talked about earlier peaked on live television when Jason Dickinson was asked about Connor Bedard's power-play goal.

You can really relate to Dickinson, as the small victories are nice. But in the greater scheme of things, one-goal won't do much when you're down by four and have trouble mounting a come in the 3rd like we've seen them do before.

The grizzled 3rd-line center didn't mince his words about his teammate, or the Blackhawks situation.

Bedard would also be guilty of a turnover after his goal and would prompt the Kraken's Jared McCann to take advantage of the Blackhawks who were down a man 3-2 in their own zone to score a goal.

In the end, it is about discipline and playing a full sixty-minute game for the Hawks which they need more practice doing obviously.
