Hope this starts to out chicago in the right direction again after these hard couple last years man
Let’s go badarwd
Dude is just dying in the inside
He's just being nice but that's not where he really wanted to go.
Methinks he's happy to be in the NHL and also to be first overall but we all know which team he preferred to be on.
Let’s go Betsy
Where do you think he wanted to go besides going to Chicago?
Let's hope he turns as good as another #1 pick. It would've been cool to see this kid play with Kane.
Player gets drafted to Chicago: “Yeah, I mean, it’s uh… Original Six Team so that’s good…”
RIP bedsy 2023-2023
Gutless.
Play for the Minnesota Wild. So they can win the Stanley cup, you are the best.
yeah right connor
Chicago is the team nobody wanted him to go to except annoying Chicago fans
Let’s go
he is crying inside
Ngl Chicago might do good with Bedard, the guy they just drafted and Hall on that first line
He should be on the Boston Bruins! However like usual Bettman wouldn't allow it!
Pull a lindros come home to van kid
Noice
guys guess what… he could be a lot happier..
Let’s go! I love Bedard he is so sweet and is so deserving to be in the NHL
Dying on the inside
How long do you think he’ll stay in Chicago
Fixed by the league
He is so grateful. The NHL needs more of this in it’s players.
Dang I wish he was a redwing 😢
Let’s be honest. He could be happier. He wanted to be a Canuck
doubt it
It’s amazing how young he is. I don’t follow hockey but I wish him nothing but the best 😃
Wait until he sees his our fans react to him first home game he’s gonna love it even more
Go bedard
so much for pulling a Lindros ehhh … Idiots!
Give respect to this man. He deserves it 👏🫡
You can tell he's trying very hard to act excited… good on him. Making the best of a bad situation is part of being a professional
Great actor! Who actually want to live in Chicago!??
Don’t get shot bud, stay safe and come back north of the boarder when you’re contract us up
People in comments don’t understand Chicago is a beautiful city , the rough parts are concentrated
HES 17 😮😮😮😮😮
Nice young man
Mcdavid 2.0
Chicago is the NHL's version of purgatory. Let's hope this kid is Jesus!
When you realize on the ice hes a big baby and just gunna get hit and end up injured
lets go hawks
blackhawks are so bad the nhl are making fun of them
Cope
He definitely didn’t want Chicago. But it’ll grow on him. He’ll adjust.
The best player in the WHL get drafted to the worst team in the NHL that unfortunate 😢
On the inside he is happy but not happy to be on a poverty franchise but at least he has got drafted
Too good for that team 😮
He wants a resles in 5 years
okay but does he have lipstick on?
