Do you mean do this now? I don't think the solution to get Bedard going is to have a rookie learning the ropes of the NHL playing against top competition every night as his center. Seems like a recipe for disaster. They should keep Nazar in Rockford for most of the year.
No, I mean long term, they should move Bedard to wing and let someone else handle the 200 ft center responsibilities, think we want him to be the Kane/Kuch/Panarin type game changing winger because its becoming clearer thats where he's most likely to hit his ceiling

Yeah that’s even worse. Don’t be stupid. Your days with Bedard being a center are already over? I can’t roll my eyes hard enough.

I’m fine with him staying at C but man he really needs to figure out what’s going on with himself cuz with each passing game this looks more and more like it’s bigger than just a fluke stretch/small bump in the road. Could we be messing with his development who knows? But his lack of goal scoring going back to the final 20-30 game of last season is staggering. No more excuses for the kid he needs to be better starting now.

Bedard is struggling no doubt. I’d still bet on him challenging for Art Rosses perennially in his prime but I think the question of whether or not we have a true 1C in him is a very valid question moving forward

I think his ceiling is maximized being a 125 point winger, so yes...I want him to be Kane, not Brayden Point
