Former Hart Trophy winner and five-time NHL All-Star Taylor Hall is expected to miss the rest of the season to undergo surgery on his right knee, the Chicago Blackhawks announced Thursday.
Hall, who had two goals and four points in 10 games, last played Sunday in the Blackhawks' 3-2 loss to the Buffalo Sabres. He logged more than 17 minutes.
Placing Hall with Bedard would give the 18-year-old, who has been touted as the NHL's next generational talent, an experienced prolific winger who could guide him on and off the ice throughout an important time of the Blackhawks' rebuilding efforts.
