Connor Bedard Returns Home to Vancouver, Aims to Extend Point Streak Against Childhood Team

Connor Bedard is slated to return to his hometown on Wednesday night as the Chicago Blackhawks face the Vancouver Canucks. The young star is currently performing at an NHL career-best level, a stark contrast to his initial games against the team he grew up cheering for. This matchup offers Bedard another significant opportunity for a strong performance, particularly as he looks to extend his current point streak. He is projected to play on a line alongside Ryan Greene and Andre Burakovsky. The Blackhawks, currently 0-2-1 on their road trip, are looking to get back on track, with the puck dropping a little after 9 PM CT.
