Connor Bedard, the highly anticipated addition to the Chicago Blackhawks, made a memorable impact in his official debut.
Bedard's exceptional playmaking skills were on full display as he set up Andreas Athanasiou for the game-winning goal in overtime, leading the Blackhawks to a 2-1 victory over the St. Louis Blues.
Seth Jones initiated the play, connecting with Bedard, who then delivered a remarkable saucer pass to find Athanasiou, sealing the victory for Chicago.
In his preseason debut, Bedard showcased his ability to create scoring opportunities, earning a pair of primary assists. It's safe to say that the young talent has already made a significant impression in his new Blackhawks jersey.
