More News: How the Blackhawks plan to survive without Connor Bedard
On Monday, the Blackhawks announced they were putting Bedard on injured reserve.
Via the Blackhawks:
“The Chicago Blackhawks today announced that the team has recalled defenseman Ethan Del Mastro and goaltender Laurent Brossoit (conditioning assignment) from the Rockford IceHogs of the American Hockey League.
“Additionally, the team has placed forward Connor Bedard (upper body) on injured reserve retroactive to Dec. 12.”
Amid Bedard’s move to the IR, Blackhawks head coach Jeff Blashill was not in any mood for tardiness.
Per CHGO Blackhawks, Blashill called out a group of players for being late to practice.
“You don’t (expletive) show up on time!” Blashill said.
Jeff Blashill, unhappy with the start of practice, just let a group of Blackhawks have it. “You don’t f—ing show up on time!”

The first-year head coach didn’t stop there, screaming at Artyom Levshunov for missing a five-on-five rep.
“Wake the F up,” Blashill said, via Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times.
The Blackhawks have some good news on Bedard. Per Pope, Blashill confirmed Bedard will not need surgery to repair the “upper-body injury.” However, Chicago is not expected to re-evaluate Bedard until after Jan. 1.
But by that time, the Blackhawks could fall out of the postseason chase. That is, if they don’t wake the (expletive) up.
