Audio Leak: Foligno Upset With Connor Bedard for Taunting Him From The Bench

The Chicago Blackhawks, after winning the draft lottery over the summer, made a significant move by selecting Connor Bedard first overall. In an equally impactful off-season decision, they traded for Nick Foligno from the Boston Bruins. This trade proved to be more than just a strategic play on the ice; it fostered a unique mentorship and bond between Foligno and Bedard. Foligno, embracing a fatherly role, often invites Bedard over for family dinners, where Bedard interacts and plays with Foligno's kids, both at home and during practice sessions.
