Connor Bedard Shows INSANE SKILL During Warmups 1/5/24 Chicago Blackhawks

[@guru2899]

Don't get me wrong, Bedard is a tremendous player. It was a one-man show at the World Juniors. But for my money, McDavid is more skillful. Watch McDavid when he practices. His head is up and he doesn't even have to look down to see the puck. He feels it. If McDavid was on a better team, his stats would skyrocket.

[@runninwiththedevils]

@guru2899 fair point, but keep in mind how much younger Bedard is currently.

[@Jinjee_YamYam]

They are just different styles.. Mcdavid and Crosby are same? no.. all players have different styles and follow what you like .. for me, Bedard has more superstar skill that attract people than Mcdavid. even I know Mcdavid is Mcjeasus like skillful player

[@Tannertraversed]

But when Bedsy is playing real time he always looks to pass with his head up the entire time then gets pissed off at the puck and flicks it towards the net, head up entire time.

[@janzkee]

fair point but mcdavid would look down in his rookie years and some years after

Here is a skill he will need to improve, KEEP YOUR HEAD UP!

I have a feeling he's going to get good fast if he learns to play with his head up. McDavid is a good example, always scanning the ice and doesnt need to look at the puck much at all

[@greathoonta3461]

What’s interesting is he is normally excellent at keeping his head up. He’s very aware so he stays away from checks. It only takes one time though.

insane skills ... 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@manningchiro]

Just great stuff. That said - I can't help but wonder what the veterans think of this kid and all the attention he gets 24/7. Thinking back to the GOAT, Bobby Orr (Yes. I'm THAT old) in the 70's. Not flamboyant. Super respectful. No showing off of insane skills in warmups for the sake of drawing attention. JUST played his butt off - kicked ass and took names at game time. Just sayin.

[@runninwiththedevils]

@manningchiro I don’t think he’s doing it to show off per se. I think he’s getting repetitions in for the types of moves he does in games. I think he does this stuff so often it comes to him so naturally in game play. I could be wrong but that’s my take on it.

[@macd7743]

He’s just warming up. Like any sport, hockey players have drills and that’s what a warmup looks like.

@@runninwiththedevils Like I said, there are exceptions to the rule. He might put on some weight and muscle but he aint gonna grow 4 inches, his growth spurt is over. And 5'9' players get beat up easily. I hope he proves me wrong but historically small players don't last.

If you never played hockey before, stick handling like this, really hurts your lower back so it’s not easy to maintain for 3-4 minutes.

[@greathoonta3461]

Uh- it shouldn’t. Your form and stretching is not very good if it hurts like that. You shouldn’t be bending your back a lot, to get lower you should be pulling your butt back so that you don’t need to lower your back very much. Notice how Bedard doesn’t bend his back very much, this is important so that his head can stay upward so he can actually see what’s around him.

[@guru2899]

@@greathoonta3461 Yup just like he saw the hit that was coming for him? As good as Stevens' hit on Lindros.

[@djrondo1224]

Bedards a little cocky for a rookie. Maybe I’m getting old but he could use a little ofMcDavids humbleness. And for the record he could have tossed a few pucks into the crowd. Maybe he did but they didn’t show.

[@Weekend658]

@@greathoonta3461 depends the length of your stick. A forward is going to have a much shorter stick for better wrist and snapshots and better puck control than a defensemen would. My stick was always 2 inches under my nose on skates so I had to really lean down to puck handle but it gave me incredible grip on the puck once it sat in the middle of my blade.

Meh. Everyone is skilled these days. But out of 800 players in the NHL, Bedard's +/- is tied for 798th worst. He has the worst record of all 100 current rookies. And it ain't because the team sucks. Dickinson is a +8. And it ain't because he's 18. So is Benson, and he's a plus 1. And it ain't because he's a rookie and rookies don't know how to play a two-way game. Marco Rossi is doing fine. No, it's because the dude is out to pad his stats and couldn't care less about playing as part of a team.

That's like saying penalty minutes say nothing. You're right, but also wrong. It's not a perfect stat, but take and goal differential statistic you want and Bedard is on the bottom of all rookies and almost the entire league. Why? Because he doesn't play fundamentals.
