The Blackhawks are building a monster with some top draft picks over the past two seasons creating prospects ready for 2024-25 training camp.

Taylor Hall is back after missing most of his first season with the Chicago Blackhawks with a right knee injury.

The easy answer here is Tyler Bertuzzi and Teuvo Teräväinen, the veteran wingers whom the Blackhawks signed to four- and three-year contracts, respectively. Bertuzzi’s nose for the net and scrappiness and Teräväinen’s playmaking ability would be significant upgrades for Bedard and help him take the next step offensively in his sophomore season.

Taylor Hall, who missed most of last season because of right knee surgery, said he's "100% healthy" as training camp begins for the Blackhawks.

Taylor Hall is officially back for the Chicago Blackhawks. After months of watching his team from afar, Hall hit the ice with his teammates for the first time at the start of training camp on Wednesday.
