It's no secret that the Chicago Blackhawks will select Connor Bedard with the first overall pick in the next draft. He will change the face of the franchise for a long time and help the Hawks regain their spot as a top contender team.

But with that comes a big question: Who should he play with? An idea was published on Twitter that makes sense.

Blockbuster Trade Proposal Emerges to Send Mitch Marner to Play on Connor Bedard's Line



The Leafs are on the verge of making some big changes in the organization, and none of their best players' spots seem safe.


In this idea, Mitch Marner would be traded to the Blackhawks.

"Hear me out:

Chicago Gets:
Mitch Marner
Matt Murray

Toronto Gets:
Drew Commesso
Frank Nazar
Lukas Reichel
19th overall pick."

With these two players coming from Toronto, Chicago would be in a position to compete as soon as next season.

What's most exciting about this proposal is seeing Marner alongside Bedard. That would be a dangerous duo every night.

Now, are the Blackhawks ready to pay the price?

They would be sending three top prospects and a first-round pick.

It doesn't seem like much for a superstar like Marner, especially considering they have a lot of quality draft picks in the coming years.

Would you like to see Mitch Marner on the same line as Connor Bedard?
