NHL insider Frank Seravalli makes a bold prediction for Connor Bedard's second year with the Blackhawks
Daily Face Off's Frank Seravalli has made a bold prediction for Connor Bedard's 2024-2025 NHL season.
We all know Kyle Davidson has worked tirelessly in the off-season to improve the Chicago Blackhawks lineup by adding Tyler Bertuzzi, and Teuvo Teraveinen.
Bedard ended up scoring 61 points( 22 G, 39 ) in 68 games with the Blackhawks, at almost a point-per-game pace.
He would post 61 points, after being out a month with a broken jaw.
But we think with the addition of Pat Maroon, there will be fewer chances of injury happening to Bedard. Who'd try it with Big Rig?
Seravalli however, thinks Bedard with the new Blackhawks lineup can hit 100 points this season, and with the two dynamic wingers available, in addition to Taylor Hall and Philipp Kurashev, there isn't any reason why he shouldn't in 2024.
If you don't recall, in 2023 Seravalli also made this prediction for Bedard's rookie season, leading what could've been considered one of the worst Blackhawks teams in sometime.
1. Connor Bedard will become the first rookie since Sidney Crosby in 2005-06 to net 100 points in a season. It can be done, even for an 18-year-old on a bad team. Crosby paced Pittsburgh with 102 in a dreadful year for the Penguins, who finished in 29th place with 58 points. Believe it. Bedard Mania is here for the Blackhawks.
Barring another serious injury, we agree with him.
