## Resource

On this episode of the Blackhawks Breakaway Podcast, Pat Boyle and Charlie Roumeliotis break down a wild week for the Blackhawks, as a stomach virus ripped through the locker room, including Connor Bedard. They explain just how bizarre Friday’s game was and also discuss Drew Commesso’s 36-save shutout in Nashville for his first career NHL win.They also dive into Saturday’s Chicago sports frenzy and how the Blackhawks are capitalizing on the Chicago Bears’ playoff energy. Plus, they share their thoughts on whether Bedard could replace Brayden Point on Team Canada if Point’s injury keeps him out of the Olympics, Tyler Bertuzzi’s heater, the terrific special teams, and more.Pat and Charlie later discuss Patrick Kane’s 500th career NHL goal with the Detroit Red Wings and his emotional postgame locker room speech, then look ahead to Saturday’s Centennial Celebration Night, which will feature more than 25 Stanley Cup winners in the building, before Jonathan Toews makes his return to the United Center on Monday for the first time as a visitor.They wrap up the show with prospect updates on No. 3 overall pick Anton Frondell and 2023 second-round pick Roman Kantserov, who’s having a historically great season in the KHL.
