The Chicago Blackhawks Disrespect The Bruins Biggest Rival
The Chicago Blackhawks have joined the ranks of teams limiting media access for their players, a trend that's gaining momentum, particularly when facing formidable opponents like the Toronto Maple Leafs.
This move comes on the heels of the Montreal Canadiens adopting a similar approach in a recent showdown against the Leafs.
The decision to shield emerging talent Connor Bedard from the Toronto media has raised some eyebrows, with local media expressing their displeasure. Toronto Star Reporter Kevin McGran expressed his concerns, stating,
Toronto's media landscape is notorious for its intensity, which can add significant pressure to players. Teams are increasingly mindful of the potential distractions that media attention can create.
By imposing these restrictions, the Blackhawks seek to safeguard their players, particularly Bedard, from the heightened scrutiny and pressure associated with the Toronto media in the lead-up to a significant matchup. This strategy allows the team to maintain their focus on their on-ice performance without being entangled in media distractions.
