Connor Bedard | Fantasy Outlook

Connor Bedard remains a high-upside draft target despite early-season injury timeline

Bedard enters his age-21 season facing a delayed start after undergoing left shoulder surgery in July. He is expected to miss the opening month of the 2026-27 campaign with a targeted return in November. While starting the year on injured reserve requires managers to absorb early missed games, his role as Chicago's undisputed top-line center and primary power-play driver is fully solidified once cleared.

The young center has demonstrated steady year-over-year progression, culminating in a 30-goal, 45-assist output over 71 games last season while firing 226 shots on goal. His combination of high-volume shooting and elite playmaking has made him the engine of Chicago's offense, consistently handling heavy ice time as the focal point of the attack.

With an ADP around 43.4 (roughly fourth-round draft capital), fantasy managers get a discount on elite offensive upside. Our season projection forecasts 75 points, 226 shots, and 21 power-play points across 69 games, positioning him as a point-per-game weapon upon his return who is well worth stashing.
