Bedard missed all of training camp and the opening six games of the season, but he should make his debut on Tuesday against the Pittsburgh Penguins. The Blackhawks can't afford to go much longer without their 21-year-old superstar after scoring just 12 goals in their first six games (1-5-0). Bedard had 30 goals, 75 points and 226 SOG in 69 GP last season.

Bedard shed his non-contact practice jersey on Sunday and was a full participant as the Blackhawks took the ice. The 21-year-old superstar has been out since late summer after he suffered a shoulder injury in a free skate. His return will make a massive impact on Chicago's lineup after he had 30 goals, 75 points and 226 SOG in 69 GP last season.
Bedard underwent shoulder surgery in early July and was given a four-month recovery timeline, but could be trending toward a sooner-than-expected return after practicing on Monday. The 21-year-old Bedard, the first-overall pick in the 2023 NHL Entry Draft, missed some time last season with a shoulder injury, but was exceptional when healthy, scoring 75 points (30G / 45A) in 69 games.
Video was circulating last week of Connor Bedard going down favourably holding his shoulder at a skate and Chicago announced Wednesday that their star forward underwent successful shoulder surgery and is expected to miss approximately four months. The 20-year-old will likely miss the beginning of the regular season and is entering his 4th NHL season in Chicago after putting up career highs in nearly all categories in 2025-26, including goals (30), assists (45), points (75) and SOG (226).
Bedard was a surprise scratch on Monday, as he became the latest victim of the flu that's ravaged the Blackhawks dressing room of late. It's an unfortunate break for the young phenom, who had just two games under his belt since returning from the shoulder injury that sidelined him for over a month. That said, Bedard has been outstanding when healthy, scoring 46 points (19G / 27A) through 33 games this season. He returns to the lineup on Thursday against the Calgary Flames, looking to continue his exceptional season.

After playing below expectations in 2024-25, Bedard was showing why he was a first-overall draft pick with his impressive play this season, scoring an impressive 44 points (19G / 25A) in 31 games. The 20-year-old has not played since December 12th and will draw back into the lineup on Friday against the Washington Capitals, looking to pick up where he left off before his injury.

Bedard did not play in Chicago's most recent game and was placed on Injured Reserve. The severity of his injury remains unclear but he is expected to be re-evaluated in the New Year and is not expected to need surgery. The 20-year-old Bedard has been having a breakout season with 44 points (19G / 25A) in 31 games and will be eager to return to the lineup as soon as possible as he continues to make his case for the Canadian team at the Olympics.
Bedard has not played since the beginning of January after taking a heavy open-ice hit from the Devils' Brendan Smith, forcing him to leave the game. The 18-year-old Bedard was having a solid rookie campaign with 33 points (15G / 18A) in 39 games and was well on track to capturing the Calder Trophy before his injury. Bedard will return to receiving top-line and top-powerplay deployment immediately when he returns to the Blackhawks' lineup on Thursday.

The Blackhawks will be without rookie phenom Bedard for the next 6-8 weeks after successfully undergoing surgery on Monday. Bedard took a heavy open-ice hit from the Devils' Brendan Smith in the first period of Friday's game and did not return. In addition to being out for the next several weeks, Bedard will also be unable to compete at the All-Star game. Bedard's absence further hurts an already injury-depleted Blackhawks roster, whose active scoring leader is now Philipp Kurashev, who has only 23 points (8G / 15A) in 34 games.
