GDT: [WJC] Slovakia vs. Canada, 6pm EST 11/8/22

Bedard's shooting skills are NHL elite. It's a "seeing eye missile" that can be activated from anywhere beyond the blueline. I'm obviously not making any comparisons here, but does Bedard's ability to score from absolutely anywhere in the offensive zone not remind folks of Wayne Gretzky?

Can really tell Bedard studies Auston Matthews shot religiously (as per an Athletic article recently). Ridiculous how far he can pull it.
 
So not only does the Slovak d get no air under the shot... his partner is on his way in... where? for what? The Slovak d is a comedy show and if they don't clean it up they won't beat Latvia

I love his sense and awareness, one of those things so magical and not really learnable. You either got that kind of gift or you don't.
 
It’s tough to find any sort of identity on a line of Bedard and Mac. Good luck ever getting the puck. He’s not really a complimentary player. He’s a play driver that can’t drive plays because he’s playing with better players.
He's a goal scorer on a line with 2 other goal scorers. Maybe German Spitfire is right in that he should be on a line with playmakers.
