There doesn't appear to be a ceiling for this year's NHL draft sensation to be Connor Bedard.
The 17-year-old phenom has been making headlines throughout the entire NHL season with highlight reels of goals he scored to the plays he's made with his teammates which included when Canada won the U18 hockey tournament.
The numbers are just incredible. And with the possibility that the Hawks could draft this young man could be a game-changer, to say the least for this franchise.
The 5'10" 185-pound centre for the Regina Pats, has numbers that would make any statistician shake their head at how incredible this player is.
He has played 55 games so far and has scored 70 goals with 71 assists for an eye-popping 141 points. He is currently a + 42 and holds 62 penalty minutes along with 16 power-play goals and five shorthanded goals. He's also scored 11 game-winning goals.
The blackhawks have certainly set themselves up to try to win the draft lottery, and it will remain to be seen if they are successful.
The Blackhawks are on the road and will meet the Colorado Avalanche tonight March 20th, and game time will be at 9:00 PM eastern.
