    Summary

    Connor Bedard was supposed to be Chicago’s future—until they decided he wasn’t worth the trouble.

    Traded to Edmonton without warning, Connor doesn’t react. He packs his bags, ignores the headlines, and goes where they tell him. The Oilers welcome him with open arms, but he doesn’t understand why. He’s waiting for the catch—for the cold shoulders, the whispered criticisms, the treatment he’s come to expect.

    But something about Edmonton is different. The team doesn’t just tolerate him; they see him. And for the first time in a long time, Connor starts to wonder—what if hockey wasn’t supposed to feel this way?
