I can't imagine the pressure off ice and on this kid must face. The best highlight is his gold medal post-game interview where he didn't want to talk about what he accomplished, he wanted to talk about what the team accomplished. A class act already at 17, and a credit to his parents and hockey organizations. (rumour has it Slovakia is still looking for 4 jocks)

Yet to see someone so good at hockey while flying through the air. He scored a goal with the Pats in his first or second game ever where he Bobby Orr'd the crease and golfed the puck mid air as it bounced off the ice into the top corner. I swear I heard a moose jaw fan scream like someone had been shot out of pure disbelief lmfao.

One thing I like about Bedard is the amount of grit he has. Crosby is similar, both are highly talented players who aren't afraid to make grunt level plays. Crosby recently went feet first into the boards to keep a puck in the offensive zone and Bedard at the world juniors dove to sweep the puck onto his teammate's stick. These types of plays are what separate the greatest from the great.

You mention that time Bedard dove to pass the puck. Even more magnificent was the defensive dive when his stick was purposely upside down to knock away the puck on a breakaway. I rewinded to that 10X, and I am still speechless.

That Slovakia game OT goal was ridiculous, I was at the edge of my seat out for supper with my old man for my birthday, best gift I could’ve got was an atrociously disgusting Bedard OT winner. The bar went fucking nuts. 23’ juniors will be one to remember for a long time.
That slo mo of his eyes when he shoots that sharp angle shot is insane. You can literally see his decision making in real time and as soon as he sees that corner open he instantly releases it.
Amazing player. Joshua Roy did an amazing job too

Heard a lot of hype about this kid, but after watching these highlights, I think it's safe to say it's not overstated. Excited to see how he'll do in the NHL. Still pretty young, but these highlights are reminiscent of the Jack Hughes prospective highlights to me. You never know how they'll do off the bat if they join and start playing so young, but I think he's got a bright future.
This kid holds the stick the proper way. His left elbow is out giving more flexibility and quicker reactions with the puck. Turn pivot shoot much quicker than the arm against the body. When the arm is against the body it restricts passing shooting etc. some players to pass to there off side will need to turn there entire body in the direction of the pass. Amazing hockey player.
this kid has never looked nervous in his life. the way he skates with the puck is just so natural and calm
Love that Heave Away is the goal song! Real maritime feel there
I know most everyone hates it, but welcome to Chicago Bedard!!!!
can you imagine someday Bedard and Mcdavid playing together on the international level 🤤🤤
