The worst is confirmed for Connor Bedard following a broken bone
In a significant development for the Chicago Blackhawks, breaking news reveals that both Connor Bedard and Nick Foligno have been placed on injured reserve.
Each player has broken a bone.
Bedard, suffered a broken jaw, and Foligno, dealing with a fractured left finger, join a growing list of Blackhawks players sidelined due to injuries.
The injuries occurred during a recent matchup against the New Jersey Devils, with Bedard taking a hit up high from defenseman Brendan Smith.

With nine players now on injured reserve, the Blackhawks face a challenging period ahead as they navigate through the impact of these injuries.
Fans are eagerly awaiting updates on Bedard and Foligno's recovery timelines and are bracing for adjustments to the team's lineup in the upcoming games.
