Through his first two games, Bedard has a goal an assist. Perhaps more notably, his Blackhawks are 1-1 after facing two tough opponents in the Penguins and the Bruins. The Hawks already seem to be much better than they were last year, particularly when it comes to creating offense.
As a result, the Blackhawks are must watch television right now. Bedard is off to a hot start and the team appears to be full of energy for the first time in awhile. They next take on the Canadiens tonight at 7:00PM EST.
