Savoie and Bedard BATTLE at CSSHL Championships!!!

[@ohJDVN]

Bedard just has that “it” factor not many players have. He has an innate ability to slow the game down (or speed it up) and make others play at his own pace. Exceptionally smooth as a young player in all areas.

[@trevorcobelo8156]

Reminds me a lot of Nathan mackinnon

[@alexhaworth3700]

Yeah he does never stops hes feet moving and turns it on every minute proper team player

Is it just me or did they both get way better then last time they played each other.

At 130 you here the guy go geez they got 3 guys on him .... then says probably smart 🤣

[@CanadianBongRipper]

Been following these 2 for over a year and from what I saw: Bedard is a very good skater, strong and great balance. He's a goal scorer, his shot is lethal. He's a very flashy player he dangles a lot and has phenomenal hands. Idk about his defense but Ive seen him turn the puck over a lot. He needs to pass more people have called him a puck-hog before, and he's pretty arogant. Savoie is just an incredible skater! His speed is insane and his edge work and agility is also top notch. He seems more of a playmaker cause he doesn't shoot a lot. He seems like a very special speedy playmaker.

[@denatheduck]

they're very good at lateral movement

[@timoteojuans1964]

Just watching this it looks like Bedard has a ton of speed. Savoie looks like he has the edge in agility. Who is more highly rated?

[@CanadianBongRipper]

@@timoteojuans1964 Savoie clearly has the edge when it comes to skating. However Bedard is stronger on his feet and has a better balance. Seen in other videos Bedard showing his strong strides, he seems like an elite skater on top of all of his skills. But Savoie is no doubt the better skater.

[@timoteojuans1964]

@@CanadianBongRipper Bedard is a yr and half younger yoo it seems. Whos going no. 1 in whl draft.

[@CanadianBongRipper]

@@timoteojuans1964 Yes im of course aware of that. Bedard will for sure go 1st in the WHL draft, let's see if he gets that exceptional status... But Michkov is in the conversation for the #1 overall in the 2023 nhl draft with 70 goals in 26 games playing in Russia u16! People are calling him the next Ovechkin. Personnally, Bedard is my favorite prospect in hockey but Matvei Mitchkov is very special!

[@calebcoelho9574]

Watching savoie shoot around the back of the net with the puck has to be the coolest thing ever

[@nelmsy_tv2922]

How are you not making that pass at 5:01 for a redirect?!

[@sdude55]

i noticed similar plays in a few of Bedard's highlights. sometimes he's prone to look off an open passing lane for the shot on net...not always the smartest decision as often times it's a low-percentage shot. granted when the game moves that quickly it's easy to criticize, always easier said than done on the ice. I'm interested to see his transition into major junior where he can use his teammates a bit more.

[@ljf1963]

Selfish, noticed the same thing.

[@nelmsy_tv2922]

Sheldon Farley Agreed. At this level he does seem to have more of a “shoot-first” mentality, and whether thats because of how he sees the game or the quality of his teammates will be seen in his transition to major junior and beyond. Given his skill set, I think he has superstar potential if he is able to consistently elevate the play of his teammates at the next level. Can you put him on a line with two “average” guys and turn them into household names (i.e. Crosby with any winger he plays with)

[@thomasgiffin175]

Giving the fact that bedard is younger than savoie and how he literally controlls the game, I’d give him an edge. But he needs to pass the puck more or major junior will light him up, kind of like what happened to savoie.......

And now he has 4 goals and 4 assists in 4 games in the WHL :D
