The NHL Shows the Chicago Blackhawks some with National Games
With the selection of Connor Bedard 1st overall in the draft, the Chicago Blackhawks appear to be ascendant, and their fortunes have changed as they select a generational talent.
Despite the fact that the team had five nationally televised games last season, the NHL is showing a lot of love to the team this season.
