Before the draft lottery, I doubt there was anyone in the NHL not chomping at the bit to try to land the rights to draft Conor Bedard. This budding superstar has been on the radar for every team for at least a year or two and beforehand when he was much younger.
During the CHGO Blackhawks podcast on March 29th, three of Chicago's coming prospects of the Seattle Condors Colton Dach, Kevin Korchinski, and Nolan Allan expressed what kind of player Connor Bedard is and what he would bring to the Blackhawks if he was drafted.
It's safe to say these guys are quite excited now that Chicago has landed him as the future cornerstone of the franchise. It's going to be a fascinating story to see how general manager Kyle Davidson will construct this new roster, especially with the fact they have nine draft choices in the first three rounds of this year's draft.
