For a puck skill, possession-type player as Bedard naturally is, his instincts for finding proper passing timing and his intensity without the puck to get to scoring areas in the slot are intense. If the puck isn’t on his stick, he’s often around the net front with the desire to tip pucks or pounce on rebounds. Since his hand-eye coordination is high level, he often gathers loose pucks and jams home second effort goals. It’s the combination of a sense of pressure and the ability to drag pucks the length of his reach laterally with his ability to drive the net front and compliment his teammates. It shows he’s willing to play multiple styles of games and adapt to different team roles despite high-end stickhandling and contorl on the exterior.
