To no one’s surprise, the Chicago Blackhawks selected Western Hockey League star Connor Bedard as the first overall pick of the 2023 NHL Draft Wednesday night.

The captain of the Regina Pats led the league in scoring last season with 71 goals and 143 points in 57 regular season games. He’s 17 years old.
