The Chicago Blackhawks are starting to make it clear that rookie sensation Connor Bedard is untouchable, and they're not shy about backing that statement up on the ice.

In their latest showdown, the Blackhawks sent a strong message to anyone daring to cross the line with their star player.

During a tense moment in the game, with Bedard pinned against the half wall, San Jose Sharks defenseman Calen Addison saw an opening for a cheap shot. The response from the Blackhawks was swift. Tyler Johnson, a teammate of Bedard's, rushed to his defense. However, Johnson opted for a unique approach to make his point, targeting a rather sensitive area on Addison with his stick.

Tyler Johnson's message was loud and clear: «Tyler Johnson shows what happens when you mess with Connor Bedard...😳»

Following the scuffle, both Addison and Johnson were handed minor penalties for roughing. The Blackhawks emerged victorious from the fray, securing a 5-2 win over the Sharks.

This victory not only showcased their team spirit but also pushed them further ahead in their quest to climb out of the bottom of the NHL standings, now leading the Sharks by four points.
