Players To Watch:
Chicago – New addition Teuvo Teravainen was brought in to add some scoring punch to a Blackhawks roster that struggled to score a year ago. Teravainen has been playing with Connor Bedard and the 2 forwards seem to have meshed well together with both registering 5 points thus far, it should be a sign of good things to come offensively for Chicago this season.
Calgary – Martin Pospisil is off to a fast start to the 2024-25 season with 5 points in three games. He’s developed some chemistry with winger Jonathan Huberdeau who also has 5 points so far. The young 200-foot center had 24 points in 63 games a year ago and is on his way to establishing a career-high in points while being responsible defensively.
