Disturbing scene involving Connor Bedard: the images are circulating around the web
About a month after the start of the NHL season, there's a bit less buzz about Connor Bedard, which isn't necessarily a bad thing for him.
However, as you know, the youngster is being closely watched by experts, who have identified some concerning sequences involving him, at least in their view.
Some have even claimed to have found "a serious problem in Bedard's play."
They are referring to his ability to play defensively.
Personally, we find this perfectly normal, especially considering he's 18 years old, has always been a 100% offensive player, and because that's his specialty. But here's one of the sequences that's currently causing a lot of talk in Chicago.
"What is Connor Bedard doing?
1. Awful turnover attempting to be fancy
2. The back check then leaves his assignment wide open in front of the net and he decides to skate around in a circle. As a Center, play center.
His Defense is a major issue that needs to be addressed."

Many Hawks fans are worried to see this, but it's all part of learning.
It's true that it's not exactly a defensive play clinic, but we repeat, he is still so young.
