Chicago Blackhawks forward Connor Bedard called out the playing style of the Los Angeles Kings after their 3-1 loss, saying that he found it to be boring.

The Chicago Blackhawks suffered their 3rd regulation loss of the year, losing 3-1 to the Los Angeles Kings in front of hundreds of empty seats at United Center on Sunday.
Even though they got off to a 1-0 lead after Connor Bedard scored, the Kings responded with 3 unanswered goals, picking up the win.
After the game, Bedard plainly stated that he felt the playing style of the Kings isn't exciting.
Yeah, I think on a team like that, just figuring out how to create offense. They play really boring. Like, I mean, not it's not like a dig or anything. They sit back a lot and make it hard to get zone entries. We're putting it in and trying to go get it, but they're good at breaking it out.

A lot of teams are going to play like that, especially when they have a lead, so we've got to figure out how to crack that a little bit.

Connor Bedard also called out the Blackhawks' power play

The Kings weren't the only team that Bedard called out after the loss, as he had words for how his team played with the man advantage.
Our power play was terrible tonight, so that didn't help, takes the momentum out a little bit, and they used that. In the second, we were trying to do too much sometimes, maybe. They fed off that, and we couldn't get it back in the third.

So far this year, Bedard has 8 points (3G, 5A) in 9 games.
