That's what happens when you have no one on the team and get drafted first and not have anyone on the level thats a vet that can play once bedard gets a player he'll be showing what he can do mcdavid atleast had a team to go to and mac had some good picks to go to
did he outshine bedard tho? seemed pretty equal, I mean they both had 7 less points then their games played, they're only 11 months apart. Bedard is the entire scouting report for Chicago and as you alluded to Celebrini has gone under the radar in all aspects, I suspect in his sophomore year Celebrini will get a lot more attention he deserves from opposing coaches and we'll see players start to double and triple team him much more like how Bedard sees regularly.
I’ve had some haterade for Bedard and basically called him the best possible version of Trevor Zegras. But in fairness, his game wasn’t the kind that should have been a #1 NHL center as an 18-year old with Taylor Hall as a winger. The Hawks should have started him on the wing or #2 center. The Sharks started Celebrini as the #2 center and then traded the #1 (Granlund) as soon as Celebrini proved he could hang.
Hot take. Any claim that one of the two is better than the other is pretty baseless this early in their careers when they are still so far from their skill ceilings
I’m a massive San Jose fan. Definitely prefer Celebrini over Bedard. That said, the hate for Bedard is undeserving but understandable. He has an edgy attitude, his number is one off the great one, and he was over pressured by the league and media to preform.
Mark my words, if he puts up 50 goals <40 assists or something like that they will start calling him selfish
A lot of the discourse about them is nonsense because it's too early in their careers and any number of things could go right or wrong. That being said, I'm glad there's this rivalry developing between the Sharks and Blackhawks. Need to run back that 2010 WCF in a few years with these cores. Kind of hard to have good rivalries when you're at the bottom of the league
celebrini has a higher ceiling imo. more skilled overall and is already elite defensively. bedard has leaps and bounds to be as good as celebrini. bedsy could pot 50 on a good team. but celebrini isnt ever a liability.
Good take,and no one here in Chicago hates Bedard,but his complete game is lacking,forget about the teams lack of talent,a complete hockey player is just that!I know he is young,but the hype hurts him immensely!
the only thing that made connor bedard a generational talent was the media hype before he got to the league. thats it. if you havent noticed kids are putting up insane numbers in juniors now because those leagues simply arent close to what they used to be. the points mean nothing. when i watch bedard all i see is a kid who is a deer in the headlights in the nhl skating around like its still his childhood teams he dominated. he gets knocked down easily. he looks scared to me honestly. height doesnt matter when you have that fuckin dog in you, look at cole caufield, johnny gaudreau, martin st louis, daniel briere, etc. connor is out here throwing hissy fits and i havent seen a more annoying attitude on the ice/bench ever. after he scores, no smile. just the annoying ice im too good to even be here look on his face. ffs u have generation players like mcdavid, matthews ovechkin, etc. ur in the nhl, act like ur grateful to be there and fuckin smile and celly, get the team excited to play with you. in my opinion he needs to spend a good amount of time in the minors to be humbled and come back grateful to be in the nhl. macklin celebrini IS the better player and hes smiling, enjoying his success, making his team have fun and get better. if i was on bedards team id be saying fuck this kid is no fun and i hate playing on his team. i dont even want the team to do well because then he'd have success lol. big bedard hater here. still like him off the ice as a person, but his on ice attitude is the most annoying thing ever. he is not and never will be a generational talent in the nhl ever btw.
PEOPLE ITS MUCH HARDER FOR ANY 18-19 YR OLD TO BE GREAT COMING OUT OF JUNIOR TODAY THAN WHEN CROSBY AND OVI CAME UP IN 2004-2005 .
BEDARD IS LIKE OVI A VERY TALENTED AMAZING SHOT CENTRE. CELEBRINI IS MORE LIKE CROSBY . BOTH ARE ON EXTREMELY SHITTY TEAMS.
IF I WAS KYLE DAVIDSON HAWKS GM I WOULD LOOK AT WHAT AND WHO YOU COULD GET FOR BEDARD . AT LEAST 3 VERY GOOD PLAYERS AND 2 GOOD PLAYERS
THEY COULD GET AT LEAST 4-5 PLAYERS 3 FORWARDS AND 1-2 DEFENCE OR MAYBE 3 VERY GOOD PLAYERS A GOOD GOALIE AND DRAFT PICK.
CHICAGO WOULD BENEFIT FOR BETTER BY TRADING HIM IF THE DEAL WAS RIGHT. CHICAGO IS AT VERY MINIMUM 4-6 YEARS FROM MAKING THE PLAYOFFS.
YES I REALIZE BEDARD IS A CASH COW FOR HAWKS MERCHANDISE $$$$$$ BUT IF YOU GOT 4-5 VERY GOOD PLAYERS YOU COULD MAKE PLAY OFFS IN 1-2 YEARS. I AM SUREAT AT LEAST 10-12 TEAMS WOULD BE KNOCKING AT THE HAWKS DOOR . HAWKS HAVE BIG DECISIONS TO MAKE.
You're a year off about Celebrini's age. He was 18, not 19, in his rookie season. He was only 17 when he led NCAA in scoring. That's what made Celebrini that much more astonishing the last two years. He only now turned 19 this summer.
Going to Celibrinis' first season home games with season tickets I convinced my wife were life and death to obtain, are definitely one of those lifetime highlight moments.

Celebrini is a way better 200 foot player
I guess Adam Fantilli doesn’t exist anymore. He won the hobey baker his rookie year
something about your mic and mouth noises bruh, good content but I feel like I just got chewed on…
Could definitely see them being that next great rivalry after ovi and sid, they're going to be compared like those two were for sure.
Bedard is the next Nugent hopkins

Time for bedard to come home

He's a 19 year old kid with his best teammate being nick foligno. People need to chill out lol
Give him a few more years. Even players like Mackinnon and Draisaitl took more than a few seasons to really excel
Both will be superstars but I don’t think Bedard will stay at center
You sound like Daily Dose of Internet (not an insult) but just as an NHL fan. Daily Dose of Hockey.
I’m a massive San Jose fan. Definitely prefer Celebrini over Bedard. That said, the hate for Bedard is undeserving but understandable. He has an edgy attitude, his number is one off the great one, and he was over pressured by the league and media to preform.

you're putting me to sleep bro, add some music behind you or drink come coffee.
Bedsy still better

Jordan Eberle did toe drag shots but he also had diminishing returns on the scoreboard
Great video. These young guns will be even better once each has a decent supporting cast. Nice breakdown. Thanks!
On the eye test alone, Celebrini looks about twice as good as Bedard. Celebrini also has that dog in him…. He’s going to be a menace.
Good take,and no one here in Chicago hates Bedard,but his complete game is lacking,forget about the teams lack of talent,a complete hockey player is just that!I know he is young,but the hype hurts him immensely!
I'm a Sharks fan but I think Bedard is a spectacular player. Take a deep breath and realize he's young and will improve
get a pop filter bud
Different players different strengths… both will have rheir challenges in their career we will get to watch!

Good stuff. Earned a sub!
Celebrini💪🦈🦈🦈⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Fucking fax Celebrini > Betard

Omg here we go again lmaooo
As a sj native, I’m excited we have celebrini but my favorite player of the two is bedard just because I played like that

one team is original six, the others fanbase hardly knows what icing is. Two completely different realms

I think Celebrini is going to be the next Bedard 😮
Bedard has nobody around him not the case on the sharks
Wild that both are from the same hometown Vancouver
