Connor Bedard has already shown that he has the skill level to match many of the best players in the league. However, recent events have also revealed that his work ethic can also match that of some of the league's best. <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/NHL/status/1738730540713271446/video/1'> </a></blockquote></div> <h2>Blackhawks Trainers Ask Veteran Forward To Keep Eye On Bedard</h2> The rookie center has apparently been especially eager to step back on the ice since he suffered a fractured jaw against the New Jersey Devils. However, he is not allowed to step on the ice at this point in his recovery process. As a result, the team's training staff has apparently asked Nick Foligno to keep an eye on him and make sure he doesn't violate the team rules. <q>Nick Foligno said the trainers asked for his help to keep Connor Bedard (jaw) at bay because he's already lobbying to skate: He's dying. It's pretty funny. I'm like: 'Man, just pump the brakes a little bit.' But that's who he is. That's why you love him. #Blackhawks</q> <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/CRoumeliotis/status/1746221220037611931'> </a></blockquote></div> Perhaps Bedard will eventually earn the same reputation as Nathan Mackinnon as one of the most hard-working and dedicated players in the league. His eagerness to stay in shape and return to the game is certainly a promising sign. <h2>Bedard Shows He Has Elite Work Ethic To Match Elite Skill</h2> We have already seen signs that Bedard has an unreal work ethic. The rookie forward has regularly been seen after practice working on things either by himself or with a teammate after everyone else had already left. <q>Connor Bedard is out here shooting pucks by himself nearly an hour after practice ended. The Blackhawks may have to force him to get off the ice this season.</q> <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/ByScottPowers/status/1708155406780862706'> </a></blockquote></div> Fans have even taken notice of the recent situation, making jokes about him trying to sneak into practice on social media. <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/kmarie972/status/1745909007334678911'> </a></blockquote></div> These kinds of habits build Stanley Cup Champions. This should give Blackhawks fans hope that he will lead the team to at least one more championship during his career.
