The Bedard beatdowns have continued. In the latest chapter of the 18 year-old phenom's journey, Connor found himself in the middle of the action during the Chicago Blackhawks' 5-2 loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets.

The Shove Heard 'Round Chicago

Mathieu Olivier gave Bedard a hefty shove, sending him crashing into Erik Gudbranson at the exact moment Ryan Donato scored.

Earlier in the week, during Chicago's 5-0 loss to the Colorado Avalanche, Bedard took a nasty hit to the arm from Josh Manson's stick.

As one of the league's youngest talents, it's no wonder Bedard is drawing so much attention from opponents. They see his skill and potential, but they also see his inexperience as a chance to ruffle his feathers.

Here's to hoping Bedard can shake off these hits, keep his chin up, and continue to dazzle the league with his talent.
