Bedard has just undergone surgery and will miss one and a half to two months of activity, which is obviously bad news.
"Hearing Connor Bedard underwent surgery on Monday to repair his fractured jaw.
Bedard is expected to miss approximately 6-8 weeks, meaning #Blackhawks will unfortunately need an injury replacement at #NHLAllStar." - Frank Seravalli
