The Coyotes are being slept on VERY hard going into this season. I think everything is on pace to come together and they're comfortably making the playoffs
He is a real contender for sure. And he will be one of the top locks for the Calder depending on the line he is placed on. M
I am very skeptical of Bedardās early success this year. And itās not his fault but I think a lot of factors are against him: ā¢Blackhawks are a bad team they were last year and they will be again this year. That equals a lot of losses and difficulty with chemistry when most your teammates may not even be there in a couple years. ā¢Poor additions. Yeah they character and champion attributes but they are old they are slow and they may intimidate but they arenāt going to bang and bash in the corners or out physical any other team. ā¢Bedardās size and style of play. Like Hughes he will run into NHL and struggles the same. Bedard is a scorer and shooter at heart. He will find NHL Dmen are big and pretty good and he has no space going up the middle because he has no size to leverage a pocket to shoot. He will struggle with Dmen pressing forward he isnāt fast enough to dodge it or silky enough to go thru 2 Dmen every time. He will get bullied every chance the other team gets. Idk how heāll react being targeted, while also being a short, average speed up the middle sniper. He does have a quick release thatās pretty deadly but NHL goalies if they see it theyāll get it. ā¢Bad line mates and shooter play style. He is not Patrick Kane. Similar size and build but different players. Kane uses all his teammates all the time so targeting him became his own advantage Bedard does not play like he is a shooter sniper and goal scorer he will always want to shoot and become predictable and bc he does play make for his teammates naturally and they will be bad the next couple years how is he going to get any pressure off of him. Heāll always want the puck predictably to get a shot so teams will know itās going to him and his line mates wonāt be able to do anything for themselves. ā¢All the pressure will be on Bedard and there will be no reason for any team to change that strategy. There will be no one else on the Hawks worthy of a gameplan and to focus defensive strategy. So every team should be looking forward to pummeling Bedard. And take away his dance up the middle like Hughes heās likes that a lot. (Hughes team got better = Hughes got better) It will be the same for Bedard but the Hawks are a very long way from the devils

I very seriously doubt that, but OK…š
If Slaf had Cooley's brain he'd be the next Jagr
Can you put the player's EP profil link in the description?

It will be the same for Bedard but the Hawks are a very long way from the devils
as a chicago AND arizona fan, i donāt remember the last time i was this excited about 2 rookies. this year is simply gonna be unreal.
I wouldn't be surprised, Cooley will have actual NHL players on his team and not an entire AHL roster like Bedard
Biggest joke ever, like saying eichel was gonna take it from McDavid.
