Nick Lardis, a third-round pick, is quickly becoming the Blackhawks’ secret weapon. With Connor Bedard sidelined, Lardis has stepped up as a true scoring threat—something almost nobody expected from a player with just a 13.7% shot at a long NHL career. His knack for finding open ice and his fearless attitude make every shift exciting. It’s wild to see a late pick transform into a reliable 30+ goal scorer. Are we witnessing the rise of Chicago’s next fan favorite? What do you think Lardis’ ceiling could be? #Sports #IceHockey #Blackhawks
