C Connor Bedard - Regina Pats, WHL (2023 Draft)

[Aceboogie]

Its already written in the stars that hes going to the Penguins

The Oilers are Pens are destined to have the best player in the NHL between the two of them

All I know is that if Bedard is able to live up to the hype you know the media is going to have a ball with the Connor vs Connor stories, that stuff just prints itself haha. A lot can change in a couple of years still though.

Seriously though it Is strange that there is the potential possibility of two generational players having the same first name, makes you wonder if life is a simulation?

Wait til you hear this: One time, in the NHL, there were two players competing for the scoring title who had the SAME FACE!!!

 

[Dominance]

The word “phenomenal” was actually created to describe Connor Bedard.

True story. Look it up.

He scored again, this is such a crazy start. Look at that release on his shot, it is elite in every sense of the word:



One of his assists earlier:



And the other one:

 

[ConnorMcMullet]

Adds another assist for his 4th point of the game. Up to 17 points in less than 9 games, good for 3rd in WHL scoring.

Ridiculous.

 

[Bubbles]

Yawn...only his 4th point...

 

[snipes]

Yawn...only his 4th point...

This kid is so good holy shit.

Best prospect since McDavid — without question.

The way he walked through the entire team, it's crazy. SC are pretty bad but still.

He’s torching the league right now.

Man I wish we could watch this live. I’m going to every possible game I can of his when WHL fans are allowed back in the building.

 

[peconcan]

Gotta start wondering soon if he is the new McDavid. Crazy numbers for a 15 year old on such a bad team

 

[peconcan]

Is there anyway to stream WHL games from Ontario?

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Trending towards generational.

I also get that sense. I’ve yet to watch him play, but all the highlights and accomplishments make it seem that way.

Don't even with that. Had a dream about it like 10 years ago that Edmonton would land the next Crosby and I'll be damned if they didn't luck into McDavid

 

[Artorius Horus T]

So like.....7 goals and 10 PRIMARY assists, 17 points, 38 shots on goal, in first 9 games....in the WHL, as a 15 year old....

 

[Artorius Horus T]

Also, in his last 2 games at the dot; 20/38 (53%)

 

[Dominance]

That’s actually an interesting point there George, I don’t think Bedard has collected a single secondary assist yet.

 

[JiggsNY]

How many games will they play in the WHL this year? Shame we wont get to see a full exceptional status year and see what kind of point total he could have put up.

 

[Bubbles]

That’s actually an interesting point there George, I don’t think Bedard has collected a single secondary assist yet.

And they are all great passes. No deflection or bounces.

 

[Joe Hallenback]

But guys is he good?

 

[Our Lady Peace]

But guys is he good?

Moderately

 

[CheckingLineCenter]

Pretty cool that he and Michkov are not only same generation, but the exact same draft year.

 

[Gold Standard]

un-freakin-believable

the apple on the 4-2 goal was theeeeeeeeeee most prettiest pt. of the night.

 

[Gold Standard]

This kid is so good holy shit.

Maybe. but I have to see him play a game live first to see if my jaw drops the same way it did when I saw McDavid play a GTHL game when he was 14.

at some point defenders and goalies got to figure out his tendencies and play him a little better and slow down his production...if they can't do that, then God Bless us, we have another phenom on our hands.
