The night Connor Bedard broke his jaw, Nick Foligno, his wife Janelle and the Foligno family dog came over and spent the night at Connor’s apartment so he wouldn’t be alone. 🥹😭 Tremendous gesture by the Folignos & a great relationship between Connor and Nick.

Connor Bedard’s crossover appeal is amazing. True star power. Great seeing him on major US media shows and outlets. Btw, pretty sure he’s on his way to the airport to catch our first flight of the season. 😅

I know I’m turning this into a Nick Foligno fan account, but here’s Nick watching his son, Landon, skate in the first intermission relay race 🥲

Connor Bedard acknowledges the fans in Chicago twice, the first time on his own accord and the second time with a pause thrown in. Gave me goosebumps. Dude is SMOOTH on and off the ice. 🤷🏼♂️🥹👏

I spent the first five years of my career in minor league baseball. Like players, broadcasters dream of “getting the call” to the big leagues. It was very special to make my MLB debut this weekend with the

Among everything Wayne Gretzky says here about Connor Bedard, I love the shout-out given to Luke Richardson.
“He’s got the right coach in Luke Richardson, the right organization…”

It’s Anthony Beauvillier’s first practice with the

. He’s on the top line with Connor Bedard and Philipp Kurashev.
On the first rush, Bedard passes the puck to Beauvillier, who shoots the puck into the net.

Connor Bedard said he got a phone call from Patrick Kane to congratulate him on being the number one pick. Kane told Bedard to reach out to him if he needs anything. Classy move.

Connor Bedard speaks to the grind of the
#NHL
season:
"It's a lot of fun, playing games every other day, basically. It's the best."
I agree! (about broadcasting in the NHL that is 😉😊) Games every other day: it's the best!

Hawks are in Detroit (checks notes) THIS THURSDAY. 🤯😱
Detroit plays in Chicago on Feb. 25 for Chris Chelios’s jersey retirement (oh, the parallels).

I need to apologize…Connor is referring to Taylor Raddysh, his wife (also named Taylor!) and the Raddysh family dog. Apologies for the mix-up! Too many good guys on this team 😊
