2025 Fantasy Outlook
Bedard made modest improvements in his sophomore season, going from 22 goals to 23 and 39 assists to 44. However, his scoring rates per 60 minutes were all worse in 2024-25 than in his rookie campaign. Chicago hasn’t put him in a great situation to succeed, surrounding him with several subpar linemates. Still, Bedard led the team in assists, points (67), power-play goals (11), power-play points (29), game-winning goals (five) and shots on net (195) across 82 games last season. He will continue to see big minutes on the team’s top line in 2025-26, which probably won’t help him improve his plus-minus rating. However, the first-overall pick in the 2023 NHL Entry Draft has abundant offensive potential, and he should make strides forward this campaign. Bedard’s entry-level contract expires next summer, giving him plenty of motivation for 2025-26, but he would benefit tremendously from a high-tier winger upgrade. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a three-year, entry-level contract with the Blackhawks in July of 2023.
Grabs three points Tuesday
Bedard scored two goals, including one on a power-play, and tallied the game-winning assist in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Senators.
ANALYSIS
Bedard was the hero in Chicago's season finale with a three-point night. He tallied the first goal of the game just 88 seconds into the first period before he later tallied a power-play goal in the second period. He capped off Tuesday's performance with the game-winning assist on Frank Nazar's winning goal just 48 seconds into overtime. The 19-year-old Bedard finishes the regular season with 23 goals, 44 assists and 195 shots on net in 82 games this season. The rising star saw a slight reduction in points per game and shots on goal this season. However, his durability in his sophomore season helped him reach a new career high of 67 points, with 15 of those points coming in his last 15 games. With the addition of Spencer Knight and the emergence of linemate Ryan Donato, Bedard is already in an improved situation for the start of the 2025-26 season.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
Bedard, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2023 Entry Draft and a player many consider to be a generational talent, was fantastic as an 18-year-old rookie in 2023-24, racking up 22 goals, 61 points, 21 power-play points and 206 shots on goal while averaging 19:47 of ice time in a top-line role in 68 regular-season appearances. A fractured jaw kept Bedard sidelined for 14 games from early January through mid-February, but he picked up right where he left off upon his return from injury, racking up seven goals and 28 points through the final 29 games of the campaign. With Chicago reportedly making a concerted effort to surround Bedard with better talent up front heading into 2024-25, the 18-year-old pivot could easily threaten the 30-goal and 80-point marks if he's able to play a full 82-game season in 2024-25. Just keep in mind that his plus-minus rating - Bedard finished last season with an ugly minus-44 rating - will likely remain a sore spot for at least one more year as the Blackhawks continue their rebuild.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Not going to Worlds
Bedard won't participate in the 2025 IIHF World Championship, Scott Powers of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Bedard is not a restricted free agent until next summer, so the reason for his absence from Worlds is not clear. Nonetheless, he'll turn his attention to the upcoming 2025-26 campaign after a 23-goal, 67-point effort in 82 games in 2024-25.
