Blackhawks Connor Bedard throws haymakers in heated scrum
Connor Bedard has recently found himself as the 13th forward available on Team Canada.
While netting 7 points( 5 G, 2A ) so far with Team Canada, he had been held scoreless recently, while accumulating meager PIMS.
In order to remain useful for Team Canada after his discipline, Bedard has opted to try something new out: being an agitator.
Bedard attempted a smooth pass to Michael Bunting to the front of the net, from behind the trapezoid.
Bunting would whiff on the shot, despite being set up nicely. This would continue Bedard's pointless streak.
After Bunting was shoved in front of the net, Bedard would skate net-front, and #79 for Slovakia, Libor Hudacek would ensure a scrum would happen by retaliating for Bedard's high stick on Martin Ferhervary earlier in the play.
It looks like Bedard is reaching into Brad Marchand's playbook in order to agitate his opponents, all the while not backing down from a fight, unlike Marchand.
