4 months agoChicago Blackhawks center Connor Bedard set up Jason Dickinson for a pair of goals in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to Anaheim, ending a three-game point drought. The teenage forward now boasts five multi-point outings this term. However, Bedard's performances have been inconsistent, particularly in November, as he's picked up points in only three of eight games. Bedard has notched 15 points (three goals, 12 assists) in 19 contests for his entire sophomore campaign. Somehow, he's still close to averaging a point per game despite getting on the score sheet in back-to-back outings just once all season.

He finished with two even-strength and one power play assist, adding five shots and one block in 17:41 of ice time. Bedard ended a three-game point drought on Sunday. While the teenage centerman has struggled to make an impact in recent games, his work overall has been solid this season. Through 13 games, Bedard sits on 12 points (three goals, nine assists). However, fantasy managers probably want to see a bit more consistency from Bedard, as he has finished seven games scoreless.

6 months agoChicago Blackhawks center Connor Bedard had his third multi-point outing of the season on Thursday, finishing a 4-2 victory over San Jose with two assists. Bedard's helpers both came with the man's advantage. The 19-year-old has enjoyed a prolific start to his sophomore campaign, posting seven points (one goal, six assists) in five games. However, he has blown hot and cold, flipping between multi-point games and scoreless efforts. Bedard will try to break the pattern on Saturday versus Buffalo. It's a favorable matchup for the teenage sensation, as the Sabres have so far allowed 4.00 goals per game with a horrible .874 save percentage.
