Chicago Blackhawks prospect Connor Bedard had a goal and two assists in a 4-2 victory over the Detroit Red Wings on Tuesday night in a preseason game at the United Center.
In the second period, the very first pick of the last National League draft passed the disc to defender Connor Murphy following a faceoff won in the Wings zone. The guard then beat the opposing goalkeeper with a shot into the upper part of the net.
Bedard was also involved in Corey Perry’s second success of the game, which helped break the tie in the third period. This goal was scored with a man advantage. The young prodigy concluded his productive evening of work by completing the score in an empty net. He has collected one goal and four assists in three games so far during the preparatory calendar.
Quebecer Joseph Veleno scored twice for the Red Wings. For his first goal, he went for a powerful one-timer which left goalkeeper Petr Mrazek with very little chance. A quick wrist shot achieved the same result later in the match.
Another great chance for Drouin
At the American Airlines Center, Colorado Avalanche head coach Jared Bednar once once more allowed Quebecer Jonathan Drouin to prove his worth.
The former Montreal Canadiens spent nearly 18 minutes on the ice in a 3-1 loss to the Dallas Stars. He was the fifth most used attacker in this match where the majority of the Avs’ big guns had been given time off. Drouin received a minor penalty, took a shot and finished his match with a differential of -1.
On the Stars side, the club’s stars were in uniform. James Robertson and Joe Pavelski also scored goals, while Tyler Seguin and Jamie Benn each got an assist.
A second shutout for Johansson
At the Amway Center, Tampa Bay Lightning goalie Jonas Johansson stopped all of the Florida Panthers’ shots in a 2-0 win.
This is a second shutout for the 28-year-old athlete in as many preparatory starts. He made 42 saves once morest the Carolina Hurricanes last Friday. Against the Panthers, he faced 21 shots.
The “Bolts” scored their two successes on the power play. Tanner Jeannot and Nick Paul were the authors of these goals, in the first and third periods respectively.
Quebecer Alex Barré-Boulet got an assist on his team’s second goal.
