«There needs to be respect in the game and there needs to be respect for the history of the game,» Roenick said. «But there's one player that didn't come up to me, Chelly, or Savvy, and that was the superstar of the Chicago Blackhawks. That's Connor Bedard.»
Roenick's comments came with backlash, and surprisingly it was from Blackhawks team reporters- who have been face to face with JR before.
