Bedard's October Absence Won't Kill His Fantasy Upside

Connor Bedard will miss the opening month of the season, but don't panic if you're holding him in your fantasy league - the ceiling for his second half could be astronomical. Teams are already calculating when he'll return and what kind of pace he might hit once he's back in the lineup. The real question isn't whether he'll produce, but whether you can afford to wait for him to get healthy in what could be a season-defining stretch run.
