Bedard has that Jack Hughes in him where it’s exciting every time he has the puck.
Undeniably more dangerous than anyone on our roster in the first 15 minutes of his career. He will MAKE teams adjust to him every game. It’s crazy watching such night and day difference between assertive, speedy, play driving and whatever our guys do.

Bedard has shown more than Lafreniere in 3/4 of a period than Laf has in 3 years
Why do we always get the busts…

Hes going to be better.
Penguins look like the 50 year old who dresses as acts like he’s 25.

Since when is there a required height for clipping someone in the face with your stick?
My assumption is that is has always been a rule, I just don't think if ever seen it called before. Stick to face seems to always = PP

Yea, not even a slight to Jack, but he looks like he will be on the McDavid trajectory in terms of points.

You may be right, but there is no way in hell that's not a penalty if Trouba or Lindgren was the offender.

The high sticking rule seems to be another that is written really poorly.
It starts with A “high stick” is one which is carried above the height of the
opponent’s shoulders which presumably means you can push your stick into the face of a player lying on the ice and never get called unless you take a swing and get called for slashing instead.
And then is there also leeway if your stick is bounced off something else and goes high, as that wouldn't be 'carried'?
But even then, I don't think the Hawks player's head was below his shoulders, he was bent over and they were level at worst

That tracks.
Pittsburgh literally went with the "f*** defense, we're going to try to outscore everyone" approach to team building.
I'm here for it, Jarry is not.
What do you mean no defense?, they got the Norris trophy winner!

He wasn't really interested in talking to Emily.
I already hate him

Bedard moves his feet and controls the puck. He sees space, moves into space and uses space. He's got that shot of his of course. He's more of a classic center than what we have.
Laf does nothing of that. I still think he can be a decent player but he is brainless. He needs to play high energy (move his feet non-stop, be physical in a smart way) and be awake, alert and emotionally engaged and involved in the game. If he's not he's a ghost. Also Laffy does not make his line mates better by his style, he needs complimentary line mates to bring out the best in him. I'm hoping Lavi's system will help him out once he gets settled. If not it's bad.

He's too young, he probably doesn't know about girls yet.

Laf would be having a full on conversation with her
Virgin, just like McDavid
