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

[Drumman44]

Is this a real thing?

I think that line was from May 15th episode of the Blackhawks Talk podcast

Cannot wait until the draft.

Just listened to Regina’s coach on the Laz and Powers pod. Seems like he thinks it’s crazy to put Bedard at center right now in the nhl against guys like McDavid.

Also said something along the lines of Bedard thinks he’ll be a center at the next level. Paddock didn’t seem convinced he’s a sure fire center.

Also mentioned guys like Barzal though.

Paddock as in the former Jets coach and GM?

He was widely regarded as mediocre coach and as GM for Jets

He got absolutely fleeced trading for a declining Dave Manson

Jersey came in today, gents! Happy Friday. Rocking CB98 around the office. People think I am insane, just the way I like it.

 

[No Fun Shogun]

He's going to wear a different jersey number or change his last name, just you watch.

His last name will now be Musto

He's gonna change his name to Generational

 

[No Fun Shogun]

He's going to sign a contract to save big money at Menard's, because it kind of rhymes, and he'll cut out the middle man and become Connor Menard.

 

[Ace Card Bedard]

#98 or #16 ???

 

[EddieTheEagle]

#98 or #16 ???

98 all the way. I hope…

 

[CallMeShaft]

He only wore 16 because team Canada doesn't give out high numbers.

Dach's number was always 77, but got stuck with 17 when he was there in 2020.

98 is Bedard's number. No doubt that he'll wear it here.

98 is Bedard's number. No doubt that he'll wear it here.

The great Jesse Puljujarvi was also 98 because he was one better than McDavid.

Or so I was told anyways.

98>97

The math checks out.

Let’s hope he give us an 11% discount on his contract after ELC

 

[scorehawks]

97/McD, 98/Bedard and 99...all makes sense

 

[HagelsBagels]

Cannot wait until the draft.

The Draft was pretty expensive to attend but I'll be there. Pretty pumped not only for Bedard but what else they'll do with the #19 pick and maybe trading up. Feels good to give a shit about the Hawks again.

Not sure how Paddock got fleeced in the Manson trade. The players Edmonton received were Mironov and 1st round busts Mats Lindgren. and Jason Bonsignore.

 

[clydesdale line]

First interview he's had since the lottery. He said he's texted a few of his junior teammates on Seattle.

Breif question about Chicago around 5:25. Basically saying they havent picked me yet. Man I cant wait til next season starts. I think we're in for a serious treat.
