Blackhawks’ No. 1 pick Connor Bedard opened his NHL goalscoring account during Wednesday’s clash against the Bruins, getting on the board with the first score of the game on a sensational wraparound goal.
The massively hyped 18-year-old displayed a wide range of his abilities during the goal, which he helped set up in the neutral zone and finished off with the wraparound tuck to beat Linus Ullmark.
Bedard dumped off a clean no-look pass to fellow Chicago newcomer Ryan Donato, before blitzing past the defense and sneaking the puck past Ullmark, who was late to get back in front of his net.
