Prospect Info: Connor Bedard - 2023 1st - C, Regina

[HawksDub89]

Correct, a more important issue for this team moving forward is that we find a truly elite norris caliber 1D that will be an absolute horse in a cup run because almost every single cup team has that guy, we know what Bedard will be offensively but thats just one piece of the puzzle...we still need our Hedman, Makar...Keith, etc

Bingo!

And those are tough to find.

Just tried and it looks like they’ve blocked it.

Yeah the Blackhawks store is blocking 98 Bedard custom
Jerseys.

NHL teams not taking your money would be absolutely baffling.

If I want to spend $150 on a number two Al MacInnis Blackhawks jersey they'd take my money this makes zero sense.

It says they can only sell jerseys of players on the roster. (In bold red print)

I’m guessing there was just a huge demand for Bedard jerseys and they want to wait for him to be picked before selling them by the thousands.

 

[dreadpirateroberts]

Where are you seeing that?

I tried doing it on the Blackhawks website.

 

[dreadpirateroberts]

I hope they start mass producing them ASAP because I can’t imagine what the back order time would be.

 

[BRayne]

I imagine they might not want to deal with potential returns if he chooses a different number or something occurs predraft that causes us not to pick him

I did it through nhl .com and it shows up with no issues

You can't buy a Kane or Belfour jersey? What?

Yeah might work there. I was referring to the CBH store website. (Which is the official team store)

Guess I’ll have to wait. Nbd

Just order a blank and go get it done locally.

Rough day for the ~100 people in Illinois with Bedard as their last names who also really wanted to wear number 98.

I actually like to get the jersey of the junior team they played on.

For better or worse, I actually have a Blades’ Dach jersey. I mean.. that didn’t turn out well.. but the jersey is still pretty sick.

I haven’t looked at that for Bedard yet. Not sure if anything is even out there, or if it’s reasonably priced. Could see some of those things going way up in price.

Just say it's Colton Dach's jersey when he was there. Nobody will ever know.

I saw that but somewhat questioned the questions since it’s honestly pretty cheap.

Not that I need anything super high quality. I mean, I order knock offs from China. But even those have reviews where I can see how they’ve been rated in the past.

 

[HeisenBaez]

I don't understand why ppl need a Bedard jersey right now, anyways. Wait till after the draft and go crazy then.

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Wonder when we start seeing the “Drive what Connor Bedard drives” commercials. I’m thinking game three. Of the preseason.

I was just thinking, I don’t know what kind of system you guys have in the States, but in Canada this kid would just have gotten his G2 license and still not have his full G license.

Still three years away from drinking legally there too lol

 

[HeisenBaez]

Opening Night at the United Center is already giving me Goosebumps.

Oh, and do you think there might a few more people at development camp this year? I said sarcastically.
