Connor Bedard breaks silence with major NHL off-season contract signing
Connor Bedard, the young superstar on the Chicago Blackhawks, had a Calder Cup Trophy winning rookie campaign this past season. He tallied 61 points in 68 games.
Well, Bedard, 19, signed a sponsorship deal with Gatorade Canada recently.
Connor joins his childhood idol, Sidney Crosby, as an ambassador for Gatorade.
He adds to his impressive list of sponsors, featuring BioSteel, Sherwood, Hyundai, and Lululemon.
He’s due for his next big contract in two years, where he’ll probably become the highest paid player in NHL history if he continues on this track. He’s already the face of the franchise, and was the face of it when he got drafted.
Connor is going to have a great career in the NHL.
