WJC: Connor Bedard rookie NHL season?

[Slats432]

Not so fast, Montreal is not out of the running in the sucking and sucking worse by the game sweepstakes yet and the kid simply belongs in the blue blanc et rouge.

You underestimate the ability of the Edmonton Oilers to win the draft lottery no matter what the odds.

It's a factor to be sure, lol

It's unrealistic thinking it's not going to be pressure there because the only opinions that will impact him is a small group of GMs.

Players of Bedard's calibre don't really think about pressure, they just go out there and play their game. In fact players like him thrive on pressure, like Crosby.

I mean, we don't know if he's a player of Crosby's calibre yet. And a lot of outside forces impact the situation, that is out of a player's hands.
