The Blackhawks made the trip up to Minnesota for the weekend to play a couple games in the Tom Kurvers Prospect Showcase against youngsters in the Blues and Wild organizations. Saturday night presented the first opportunity to see Connor Bedard skating in a Blackhawks sweater and he did not disappoint.

How about a hat trick!

Here’s the first goal from Bedard:
