Connor Bedard seeks one goal in this season.
The Blackhawks forward says it is reaching the playoffs.
He reiterated this during a media session on Thursday.
Bedard declared playoffs are the sole goal for the team now.
He also mentioned Carlsson’s new contract has nothing to do with his own contract talks with Chicago.
The 19-year-old signed a long-term deal with the Blackhawks not long ago.
