Connor Bedard Is Officially Heading To Toronto Despite His Injury Status

Initially sidelined due to an injury in January, it was confirmed that Kyle Connor would replace Bedard at the All-Star Weekend.

However, a new report has shaken up the situation.

Bedard is now expected to be in Toronto over the weekend, marking a significant change in plans.

Although he won't participate as a player, Bedard is set to be part of the Sherwood showcase on Saturday.

During the event, he'll showcase his skills in a shooting demonstration and competition.

According to an announcement from @sherwoodhockey,

This offers fans a valuable opportunity to witness the star rookie in action during the all-star weekend.

While it's disappointing that he won't be on the ice for the actual game, the chance to see him in other capacities is a welcome consolation for fans eagerly awaiting his return to the NHL.
