He has the potential to be very good. We shall see!

Are these stats supposed to be for this past NHL season? If so they’re suspect. Just to start the goal/assist/point totals are wrong for both players. Bedard finished with 22/39/61 and Benson with 11/19/30. Maybe they’re meant as 5 on 5 totals? But they don’t seem to make that note that I can see.

Bedard will be the better player. Benson will be a great player.

Clearly the Sabres should build the franchise around Benson. Numbers don’t lie.

I honestly did not know Bedard’s points/G/A were that low 5 on 5. I know it is to early to do any evaluation, but he is not next McDavid as must said. He is very good and will be amazing in this league, it is however apparent that holy crap the Sabre’s stole Benson this last draft.

Lindy is going to love this kid. The way he battles and pulls the puck of the wall is incredible for his size.

This makes me happy. Benson was responsible for some of the only good times I had this past season, and I only wish that RJ had been around to call some of his goals (mainly the one where he was falling backwards).

I didn’t really keep track of Bedard at all this year. Based on sports writers/talking heads and them talking about him so much. I had assumed he at least got 30g/30a.

But is he horny for goals? I hear we need to start getting horny for goals.

People really underrating bedard. If he was drafted by anyone but Chicago he wouldn’t get the criticism he does now.

Benson +12 takeaways and Bedard -9 is interesting.
Definitely an [exciting pick](https://ibb.co/MZdc6Dh) at #13 by the org.
