I don’t know where the internet rumors started a few months ago that speculated that Bedard wanted out.
I never really believed those and I think an extension will be announced on July 1 or shortly thereafter.
All good things from Bedard here.
I think the most interesting question about Bedard’s future is what his contract will actually look like.
Having said that…if I were Bedard I would NEVER do that.
All we ever hear about his how the cap is going up dramatically.
I would do what Auston Matthews did.
The arrow on the organization feels like it is FINALLY pointing upwards.
Winning comes from winning habits.
Hopefully a new coach and usher in a new culture of accountability to go with the obvious young talent.
They do have talent.
Bedard is a guy.
Nazar is a guy.
Lev, Vlasic, Knight, Rinzel…all guys.
Another top 5 pick coming.
Hopefully some big time established forward via trade or free agency.
I really REALLY hope there’s a genuine step taken next season.
I am tired of waiting.
