With 9 goals and 4 assists for 13 points in 13 games, Connor Bedard has exceeded expectations as a rookie in the NHL.

It's no coincidence that he has become a point-per-game machine in the NHL, and there's a valid reason for it.

It is clear from Connor Bedard's statistics how devastating his shot is against NHL goalies on the left side. On the left-side of goalies, he has tied former Blackhawk, Teuvo Teraveinen, with 7 goals.

Often short side for Bedard.

He's right-handed. What makes Bedard's shot so hard to stop is how he quickly pulls the puck towards his feet before release.

Goalie reads it far side, but Bedard goes back against the grain short side. He's got an incredible release!

Based on Stathletes' compilation, this is where Bedard goals typically go: over left side + over left shoulder + over left armpit + far left side.

Nikita Kucherov, the elite sniper who seems to have been dethroned by Bedard this season, is just below him.
