Nick Foligno's Hot-Mic Moment With Connor Bedard Goes Viral

Last night Blackhawks veteran forward Nick Foligno was mic'd up for his team's game. Most of the time these moments don't lead to many fun or interesting moments. However, last night Foligno made a hilarious comment on his process of mentoring Connor Bedard.

This must've sparked Bedard to prove he didn't need Foligno to succeed because he ended up going off last night.

Connor Bedard had incredibly high expectations heading into this season. For the most part, Bedard has lived up to expectations even with injuries in the way. Last night Bedard showed how truly special he can be with a five-point game.

Bedard joins an elite list of rookie forwards who were able to accomplish this feat and amass five points in a game as a rookie.

Despite the lack of team success for the Blackhawks Bedard has shown hope for the future of the franchise.
