Everyone has noticed the eye-popping improvement in Connor Bedard's game this season. The question is, how has Connor done it?
The Chicago Blackhawks have unexpectedly taken the NHL by storm thus far in the early days of this 2025-2026 campaign. The club has gotten off to an impressive 7-5-3 record through 15 games, which, for now, is good enough for a 2026 Stanley Cup playoff wildcard ticket. There are a variety of factors behind the Blackhawks' strong form so far, but none greater than the impact of Connor Bedard.
