Chicago Blackhawks forward Connor Bedard officially heads home to Vancouver
It's been a week since Connor Bedard and Team Canada lost to Team Sweden in the Bronze Medal game.
The May 26th loss resulted in a quirky happening, where Bedard has been off the ice, for over a week. This wasn't by choice either.
Bedard is likely headed home to Northern B.C., Vancouver where he usually links up with other NHLers and prospects, his "hockey homies" from Lower B.C. which includes the likes of the Islanders Matthew Barzal. They usually engage in 3 on 3 competitions.
There's no telling where Bedard is or will be en route to, but one of the rinks he could be headed toward is the North Shore Winter Club, where Bedard first picked up the skates at, or elsewhere. It could also be in Lower B.C. with the Scotia Barn in Burnaby, where the going rate is a whopping $400/ an hour.
Also involved in their group skate sessions is the Columbus Blue Jackets own Kent Johnson, Jake Christiansen, Angus Crookshank of the Ottawa Senators and Andrew Cristall, a 19th over pick and Burnaby product, now a Washington Capital.
Bedard and company, play roller hockey about once a week in the summer, in effort to keep his skills fresh. One thing he doesn't do is share his schedule in order to keep things private and undisturbed, and who can blame him??
Despite that, the 2023-2024 NHL rookie leader didn't mind the attention from kids and minor hockey players, who would watch him skate in Chicago.
