Connor Bedard said contract talks with the Chicago Blackhawks are going well.
The 20-year-old center is entering the final season of his three-year, entry-level contract and can become a restricted free agent July 1.
“It’s nothing crazy,” he said at the NHL/NHLPA North American Player Media Tour on Tuesday. “We’re both comfortable with where we’re at. They know I want to be there; I know they want me. So, it’s really not on my mind that much, and I just think when it happens, it’ll happen.”
Soon? Before the season?
“We’ll see,” he said.
