Strome is probably the worst comp you can make here. Bedard is definitely all offense, but he’s in a different stratosphere than Strome. He’s a Kane/Kucherov style of player (and likely a similar caliber some day too)

Complaining for complainings sake here I think
Bedard isn't in the Kane/Kucherov level yet and until he proves it he's in the Strome level of useless if not scoring. Also whatever he did in the offseason has made his skating worse.

They're going to give him $14M out of his ELC and he hasn't earned it yet.

Not feeling well and lying in bed watching this and well feel even worse

I expected nothing but thought Hawks would at least put up fight rather than crumble and take fetal position from start of game

Davidson cant continue to let this roster continue. Get rid of deadweight/vets teams may have interest in and give guys like Dach and Slaggert games with Hawks rest of year

I remember being annoyed as hell at even the speculation that the Hawks might go after Jones when it was just talk.

Years and years later it's only gotten worse every damn day.

Undo what has been done for ****'s sake.

I'd rather watch any rookie with potential make mistakes every period than watch Jones shrug his shoulder on his millionth -.

This losing culture has me worried with Bedard. Whether that be for his development or him just saying he wants out down the road.


It’s one thing to play hard with respect and lose. These guys are just losers and the highest paid player on the team is the biggest loser of them all.

No shit he’s not Kane/Kucherov level yet. Kane wasn’t exactly winning mvps at 19 was he? Kucherov wasn’t even in the f***ing NHL
