Connor Bedard gets kicked off the ice by the teams Zamboni driver
Connor Bedard, the talented ice hockey player, has been recovering from his jaw surgery and is currently advised by Mentor and Blackhawks Alternate Captain, Nick Foligno to stay off the ice and take time to heal.
However, it seems that Bedard is getting bored as he has been spotted on ice skating again in the United Center today.
This is good news as his recovery continues, but Bedard will still not be available to the team until mid to late February, as per the 6-8 weeks timetable for his recovery.
We assume this means that Bedard is ok to skate for now.
It was reported that Bedard was so eager to practice that the Zamboni driver at the United Center kicked him off the ice today before the New York Islanders' morning skate.
This is not the first time that the team has considered removing Bedard from the ice, as Luke Richardson previously joked about paying off the Zamboni driver to get him off the ice.
Bedard's passion for practicing and playing hockey seems unwavering, even during his recovery.
Connor Bedard is an NHL All-Star, who has played 39 regular NHL season games, posting 15 goals and 18 assists for 33 points for the Chicago Blackhawks.
The Chicago Blackhawks will look to improve an abysmal 13-30-2 record this season, with a win against the New York Islanders.
