""He won't play tomorrow," Chicago coach Jeff Blashill said of the team's game at home against Detroit on Saturday night. "I won't know more info tomorrow, so don't ask me tomorrow. At some point through the weekend, I'll know more, so I'd probably have more info come Monday.""
""I'd hate to say that without knowing the information," he said. "Until we get the information, again, he's not going to play tomorrow.""
""Honestly, I think it's a freak accident," Blashill said, "to be honest with you.""
Connor Bedard was injured on a last-second faceoff with 0.8 seconds remaining after being knocked down by Blues center Brayden Schenn. Bedard grasped his right shoulder and immediately went to the locker room with a trainer. He assisted on both of Chicago's goals and entered the game with 12 goals and 25 assists, ranking fifth in NHL points. Coach Jeff Blashill confirmed Bedard will not play Saturday and said more information should be available later in the weekend or by Monday. Blashill described the incident as likely a freak accident and offered limited details pending evaluation.
