I'm pretty sure Luke Richardson lurks here so I have an idea he maybe can use on the power play.
Step 1 - Win faceoff.
Step 2 - Give puck to Bedard.
Step 3 - Profit!

Blackhawks lose analytics guru Jeff Greenberg, who becomes Detroit Tigers’ general manager
Greenberg had spearheaded the Hawks’ analytics department growth as associate general manager, but he spent only 16 months in the role before getting a bigger job.
Greenberg was named the Detroit Tigers’ general manager Thursday after just 16 months as the Hawks’ associate GM.
The move represents a return to baseball for the 37-year-old executive, who spent 11 years with the Cubs — working underneath Scott Harris, formerly the Cubs’ assistant GM who has since become the Tigers’ director of baseball operations — before joining the Hawks in April 2022.
Greenberg was a finalist for but ultimately lost out on the Hawks’ GM role to Kyle Davidson that spring. Nonetheless, he later accepted Davidson’s offer to come aboard beneath him and build out a comprehensive analytics database, since dubbed the “Madhouse” database, similar to the Cubs’ “Ivy” database.

This is bad news for the Hawks, considering I've liked almost move the new regime has made.

You know....you're right. Most people would say..."meh, a numbers cruncher". In 16 months, he's gone from a "cruncher" to a GM of a ML baseball team. That is one HUGE jump to make. This guy must bring a ton to the table.

4 things we learned from Chicago Blackhawks training camp, including Kevin Korchinski trying to avoid ‘risky’ business
The Chicago Blackhawks dialed up the second day of training camp Friday with skaters breaking off into line rushes. Connor Bedard centered a line with Ryan Donato and Tyler Johnson. “They all…

Paywalled, but here is the interesting stuff.
www.espn.com
They compare Bedard to Matthews who had 40 goals his rookie year. Vegas apparently says 32.5. So he's predicting Connor to have 35 goals this year making it the 6th highest rookie total in the last 30 years.
How many goals do you say he'll have?
How many goals for Bedard? Who wins the Vezina? Bold predictions for all 32 NHL teams
With opening night approaching on Oct. 10, we take big swings on what will transpire for each team in the 2023-24 season.

Over 40 closer to 50. His shot is unreal. My son’s practice the other night the one coach who works with Bedard had missed a week of practice working with McSavid and Bedard. My son got to talk to this coach one on one for a bit and he was talking with him to help with his edge work. Told my kid to absorb anything he says.

I'm hesitant to put that kind of hype on him. I think I'm hesitant to get any kind of hopes up. But I don't see why he can't push close to 40 given his talent and eval. He's just so young still. Matthews was only what 19, and Bedard 18 but I think that's a big extra year when you're that young. We shall see.

I partied with Teemu in Helsinki in 2007 after the Ducks won the Cup. Been to his summer cottage a couple times. Dude has the sickest cigar collection you could ever imagine.
