Not sure how much you expected this to be that close but congrats for creating that poll lol

March 4th though, would have been quite impressive if it was made in October!

Still in disbelief that Bedard has 1 goal less and just 3 points more in 13 more games than last season, while playing all the games this time.

Chicago fans—what am I missing here? Why was he able to come out and rip off 9 goals and 13 points in his first 13 games as a pro (0.692 GPG), but has scored just 34 goals in 136 games since (0.250 GPG)?

Why is he not even going to have even 200 shots this year? Just 14 multipoint games? Only 4 whole games with 3 points?

I understand the team is bottom of the barrel, and it’s probably infecting his mind, but what do you think about him since that electric first month of his career?

A few things. Stamina is an issue. Think he's slower this season than last, so I'd say his training last off-season to get stronger had a negative effect on his skating.

When Richardson was coach, Hawks played a much more defense oriented game that really had a negative effect on the team's scoring. Even with the coaching switch, both coaches had weeks at a time where they purposely put Bedard up against other top line centers, and he's not just the type of player that excels in that role.

I think changing his off season regimen would help, so would being used properly when we control last change. I'd also love for him to work on his one timer. His wrister is elite, but he fans on a lot one time attempts. Elite goalscorers score in a multitude of ways, can't just rely on that 'pull it in and shoot' wrist shot all the time.

Brilliant season by Hutson. Going to be fun to see how he does in the playoffs.
