On Tuesday night, the Chicago Blackhawks soared to victory against the Anaheim Ducks, fueled by rookie sensation Connor Bedard's outstanding performance.
With his 20th goal and four assists, Bedard matched a franchise record for rookie excellence. As he basked in the glow of his achievement from the bench, Bedard's infectious enthusiasm was palpable.
A key contributor to his success was teammate and friend Nick Foligno, who notched four assists, including a crucial play leading to Bedard's goal.
While the two were sitting on the bench, the mic caught a funny conversation between the two, Foligno jokingly remarked to Bedard,
"There's so much to teach you I don't have enough contract time.
I'm gonna have to stay in Chicago like five more years after I retire."
