Connor Bedard Lacks Firm Return Timeline Following Shoulder Surgery

Chicago Blackhawks general manager Kyle Davidson stated Tuesday that the team does not yet have a firm timeline for center Connor Bedard's return from shoulder surgery. Bedard is expected to remain out until at least November based on the initial four-month recovery estimate following his July procedure. Davidson added that a clearer timeline may be established sometime in October. Fantasy managers with an open injured reserve slot should continue stashing the young star.
