He was pretty disappointing. Aside from his shot there not that much there. Skating and playmaking are average, can’t beat anyone 1 on 1, still only 5’9, no defensive presence at all.
Don’t get me wrong his shot is on par with Matthews. But he doesn’t know when to pick his spots. I remember I think it was during the OT or late in the game, he has two 1 on 1 chances and just rips the puck 5 feet from the blue line instead of even attempting to go around the defender. Both chances missed wide, likely deflected. His accuracy isn’t all that either. The release itself is AM34/Sakic level but he needs to focus on placement
I don’t think he’s McDavid level at all, barring serious development. I’d consider him a Stamkos/Tavares level talent at least for right now, but even then I think both were more well rounded than Bedard is right now
