Connor Bedard Makes NHL History at the All-Star Game
The Chicago Blackhawks' Connor Bedard has made NHL history again in his short career after being named to the All-Star Game
The Chicago Blackhawks first-overall pick in the last NHL draft has made league history once again. Connor Bedard has taken a title in the record books after being named to the All-Star Game/Weekend.
At 18-years-old and 171 days, Bedard is the youngest player ever to take part in the All-Star festivities. Bedard beats out previous holder Jeff Skinner of the Buffalo Sabres, who was 18 and 259 days when he took part in the All-Star game for the Carolina Hurricanes in 2011.
