After a 3-1 defeat Thursday in Seattle, the Hawks have scored one regulation goal in each of their last four games, and Connor Bedard has gone eight in a row without finding the net.

Jaden Schwartz scored his 200th career goal as the Seattle Kraken defeated the visiting Chicago Blackhawks 3-1 Thursday night.

Bedard spent Friday "chilling out" with his family at home in North Vancouver before facing the Canucks at Rogers Arena for the first time in the NHL.

Connor Bedard will step onto the ice in Vancouver as an NHL player for the first time on Saturday in a highly anticipated, yet costly, moment for the wonderkid. The North Vancouver native and 2023 No. 1 overall pick will lead the Chicago Blackhawks (6–9-1) against the Canucks at Rogers Arena, fulfilling a childhood dream.
