Episode Notes
As the summer rolls on and the NHL offseason continues, the Chicago Blackhawks are one of the few teams creating headlines. Today, Laz and Shayna discuss Connor Bedard’s shoulder surgery that’ll keep him out for four months and whether it’s fair to label him “injury prone” at this point in his career, as well as the possibility of Hawks legend Patrick Kane reuniting with the club to help buoy the offense while Bedard is out. Plus, thoughts on the Anaheim Ducks officially matching Leo Carlsson’s offer sheet and how high Shayna’s concern-o-meter is for the Dallas Stars and Jason Robertson and the Columbus Blue Jackets and Zach Werenski.
