In addition to learning on ice, Bedard got to pick the brains of many NHL players.
He stuck around, however, to get advice from McDavid about how to deal with himself in the NHL.
Connor McDavid, who recorded 850 games in 569 games, provides Bedard with a wealth of information. McDavid has set the standard for all emerging talent who want to become superstars, and Bedard is no different.
Bedard, a young center who just finished a career season with the Regina Pats in the WHL, has been compared to McDavid a lot.
As Bedard begins his first NHL season soon, he acknowledges that he will ultimately be compared to McDavid, but for now, he is focusing on other things. Ultimately, he plans on being his own player in the NHL, and he has the ability to win a Calder Trophy in his first year.
A testament to his dedication to the game and its fans is Bedard's determination to perform to his own standards.
