In a recent interview during the Combine, Bedard gave his thoughts on the Blackhawks.

Bedard's Comments

Per Charlie Roumeliotis:
Connor Bedard said it'd be «awesome» if he was taken by Chicago at No. 1 overall: «The history with that organization and that city with sports would be unbelievable. We'll see what happens. If they do select me, that would be a huge honor.» #Blackhawks

The Blackhawks are still under fire for what happened in Kyle Beach's sex abuse case.
Bedard didn't mention anything about this in his interview and it caused a stir on Twitter.
"Is he aware of The past decade of Hawks criminal acts? The organization covered up sex abuse of players

Maybe he should read up and HOPE he doesn't go 1st overall."

This will have absolutely no impact about his selection at the first overall pick, but aknowledging the circumstances in Chicago could defuse the situation.
