## Resource

Connor Bedard’s season just got a major setback after shoulder surgery sidelines him until November — a huge blow for the Blackhawks, who’ve leaned on his scoring since his draft. With Bedard out, the team’s depth is being tested as Frank Nazar and Roman Kantserov step into bigger offensive roles, while Bowen Byram and veterans like Tyler Bertuzzi are expected to chip in. Past injuries have forced the Hawks to adapt — can they rally without their star for the first month and still chase a playoff spot? This could be the breakout moment for others on the roster.
