Connor Bedard's NHL career is off to a decent start, to say the least. Through his first 12 games with the Chicago Blackhawks, Bedard has seven goals and 11 points. On Thursday night, Bedard even made some history with a big game against the Tampa Bay Lightning.

The Blackhawks took down the Lighting, 5-3, and Bedard did a lot of the heavy lifting. He tallied two goals and two assists, including this nifty move that wound up being the game-winning goal for Chicago.

By doing that, Bedard made franchise and NHL history. At the age of 18 years and 115 days, Bedard became the youngest player in franchise history to record a multi-goal or four-point game. He passed Eddie Olcyzk and Kirby Dach for that honor.
