Connor Bedard has been excellent since the start of the World Junior Championship with 14 points, including six goals, in three games.
On his podcast, The Sick Podcast with Tony Marinaro, the host made a major statement about Connor Bedard. He considers him the best 17-year-old player since Wayne Gretzky! According to him, the forward then surpasses Alexander Ovechkin, Sidney Crosby and Connor McDavid.
That's quite a comparison for the young player!
Bedard will be in action tonight at 6:30 p.m. for Canada's final game of the preliminary round against Sweden.
