Seth Jones' name has come up in some trade rumors now that the Chicago Blackhawks have proven they are willing to be active already this season. Even though his name appears to be out there, I don't think trading the team's number one defenseman is worth it yet.

Bedard notched a power-play assist, two shots on goal and a minus-2 rating in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Wild. Bedard set up Seth Jones' third-period tally. This was Bedard's fourth straight game without a goal,

Tyler Bertuzzi scored two power-play goals and the Chicago Blackhawks beat the slumping Vegas Golden Knights 5-3 to end a four-game losing streak.
