Chicago continues their road trip with a Monday night affair with the Seattle Kraken for a 9 p.m. CST puck drop.

Analysis

Chicago learned the hard way that giving the high flying Oilers chances on the power play is a recipe for disaster. The Oilers scored twice with the man advantage.

Bedard has eight points in four games and continues to be a dominant force when the young forward jumps over the boards. In his third season, you can continue to see his off-ice conditioning shining through as the 20-year-old is finding some success at the faceoff circle and has been difficult to knock off the puck.
