Blackhawks prospects like Connor Bedard are spending this week learning boxing skills and channeling their Jim Carreys. Why? Story by JDietzSports.
Summer development camps around the NHL normally involve dozens of teenagers sharpening their skills on the ice. Instead, prospects like No. 1 overall pick Connor Bedard, Oliver Moore, Kevin Korchinski and Drew Commesso sharpened their boxing skills, learned breathing exercises, attended a Cubs game and -- believe it or not -- channeled their inner Jim Carreys at the Second City comedy club.
"They get so much time on the ice that I don't necessarily believe that an extra four days of is gonna change anything one way or another."Some love that coach Luke Richardson has donned boxing gloves and is helping run those drills. Others love hearing former Hawks D-man Johnny Oduya give breathing lessons. Still others got a kick out of the trek to Second City to see who might have a second career in comedy.
In addition to Bedard, Commesso and Korchinski, we should see forwards Frank Nazar and Moore, and defenseman Sam Rinzel arrive in the next 1-2 years. Others like Paul Ludwinski and Ryan Greene , Gavin Hayes and Samuel Savoie could be here shortly after that. In that arena, it's paramount your stars lead the way. And although he's not technically a star just yet, it appears Bedard is doing exactly that.
