Chicago Blackhawks coach Luke Richardson has juggled lines regularly since the season began. He used 37 different line combinations in 17 games. Richardson has accomplished that without ever moving Red Wings former player Tyler Bertuzzi.<\/p>\n

Some members of Chicago media and \u2018Hawks fans hopes that changes by placing Bertuzzi with Connor Bedard.\u00a0 They want Bertuzzi to elevate his game.<\/p>\n

\u201cBertuzzi is one of the players who has never moved out of his second-line position since opening night, and maybe that is the one change that is needed,\u201d Chicago Hockey Now\u2019s Brooke LoFurno wrote. \u201cSome fans have been expressing concerns about why Bertuzzi hasn\u2019t been paired with Bedard, and I think there is a valid argument to be made.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bedard and Bertuzzi did play together in the preseason without much success. But perhaps they can build off that familiarity. Bertuzzi can score and offer a feisty playing style. That would seem to be two qualities you would want in a Bedard linemate.<\/p>\n

With five goals, Bertuzzi is on a 23-goal pace. But fans want more from him.\u00a0 Maybe Bedard would bring the best out of him.<\/p>\n
