The excessive fawning over Bedard makes the game less enjoyable, I'm not even sure they ballwashed McDavid this much. How they are choosing to cover Bedard needs to stop. Leave him alone.

They need to spread the hype. The Tkachuk brothers should be getting way more notice in my opinion. They have the type of personality that can grow the sport outside the old fuddy duddy mentality most hockey fans have.ESPN is going to promote the sport the only way they know how; by making it all about the individual star player(s).
They’ll hitch their wagon to Bedard and McDavid.
It won’t work. The ratings will continue to be what they are. This league will never be on par with the NFL or NBA when it comes to eyeballs watching TV screens nationally.
We live in a society where it’s all about the “next” thing.It is definitely weird hearing "Is he the next kid?" when McDavid has been in the NHL for 8 years. The next "kid" has already been here.
The media and fans need to let him just be himself. This need to compare players and immediately pit them against each other is a real turn off. I hope Fliggy is able to help Bedard navigate things this season.It is definitely weird hearing "Is he the next kid?" when McDavid has been in the NHL for 8 years.

Acciari too.Reilly Smith on the Penguins? Damn, Penguins seem stacked this year. Whoever owns the Penguins must spend a lot on their teams. Let me go and check it out.... Oh

I hope the Hawks get there money's worth out that stiff Foligno, thank christ he's goneLots of former Bs on the Hawks. Hall, Foligno, Tinordi, Donato.
With the way this night is going, we're gonna tune into tomorrows game and see that Bergeron now plays for the Hawks as well.I have no idea who plays for who anymore
He's the NHLs new toy.Bedard drags and shoots close to his body and they act like it's something no one has ever done before lol
He's the NHLs new toy.
Sucks he was a cap casualty. I really like him.Taylor Hall would have had a good year in Boston
