Bedard Sounds Fed Up, And That Usually Means Something

Connor Bedard says he is “pissed off,” and that is usually not the kind of quote a losing room shrugs off. The Blackhawks have spent plenty of time asking for patience, but stars do not stay patient forever when the standard keeps rising faster than the results. Bedard’s frustration is interesting because it says as much about the team around him as it does about his own mindset. When a player that important starts sounding like this, people in the building listen a little harder.
