I live in Vancouver and played with Connor through minor hockey and he’s honestly such a good person he reminds me a lot of Austin Mathews and I hope the best for him🙂
I can’t believe I didn’t even think of that. I was just happy he plays in Saskatchewan so I’ll hopefully get to see him play when he comes here. I totally forgot team canada will have him for all future events as well, it’d be so cool to see him, and Shane oh my gosh so many good players are gonna be on our world junior team in a few years.
@@tylergates772 savoie is better overall. Not only is he good offensively, but he's very good defensively. He's a better skater and he's more of a team player. Bedard is very fancy and often tries to score the goal himself. Bedard is obviously good but savoie is just the complete player. And before someone tries to comment "how come bedard got exceptional status and savoie didn't", there's more to it than savoie "not being good enough". Skill was not the reason he was denied, his lack of commitment to the WHL was the reason. He originally wanted to play college hockey instead of the chl.
Bedard is nasty but he reminds me more of a young Nate Mackinnon... I'd reserve the McDavid comparison for Matty Savoie - the kid skating at 0:16 - both are young studs of course.
Seen him live. I’ve played with friends who went to the nhl and also one went 1st in whl draft. This kid looks like he is 25 when he is on the ice. He is the first to go to the dub as a 15 year old which is amazing in itself. when he plays his draft year for the pats he is will score at will, make my words. He will be strong and his shot and skating will get better along with his mcdavid hands. He will get a lumps in the whl but he will learn the speed and will adapt super quick. He has lower body strength which is natural for him and should grow close to 6 ft by his nhl debut.
Hes crazy i remember he was on my buddys lil bros team for awhile, id see him playing before my games sometimes dude was 7 playing with 13 year olds lol
@@robloxarabicgaming3847 What does it matter? Bedard's still a kid nonetheless. Why you stalking Nolan's page anyways? I don't know him, you don't either. His channel looks cool though.
That cut to the inside on the 1 v 1 with the five hole goal at 1:06 is sick skill and awareness... I'm gonna start working on that one. P.S. Barbs I challenged you on my hockey field goal challenge video (check Sniper's Academy UA-cam) how for you think you can huck it??
You did a good job of pulling only the most impressive clips. I previously wasn't impressed by what I saw and thought Iguchi was more explosive but this kid has more tools it seems.
Some whl teams wont even consider size anymore. Mike johnston in portland tells his scouts to leave out size completely when telling him about prospects
I think if you receive exceptional status than you can choose which league you play in because the said that the others opted to play in different leagues
my problem is i have really good hands and the best shot on my team but im slow and my edgework isnt great so i get like 3 chances a game:( ive been rly hitting the gym to get that weight off and practicing every day to get my edgework better hopefully ill get some chances soon
Like Crosby or McDavid.. No. He is a young player playing with older guys right now. But his play so far this year would not indicate he’s the next “Big Thing”
he looks good against others kids but like most hyped up prospects(looking at last years top picks Hughes, Kakko, etc.) they'll struggle against men in the NHL because they dont have the strength or speed to compete and Bedard will not be an exception. That Savoie kid is something else though, skates like McDavid.
the possibility of the 3 best players to be 99,98,97 is crazy
66?
Savoie's skating at 0:14 is unbelievable
that sick linear crossover for sure
@@kagura222 @derek steinbrecher you guys think he could play NCAA D1 next year if he was given the chance?
John McKeon No CHL is much better development.
@@johnmckeon4775 Definitely CHL would be the best for his development
@@johnmckeon4775 he's only 16. Most D-I guys are 20-24. He's definitely better off in the CHL

That's what made it easy to instantly get a Hawks sweater with 98 when they won the lottery.
can't wait for him to be team Canada roster at the world juniors
he wont make that team for at least another year.
I can’t believe I didn’t even think of that. I was just happy he plays in Saskatchewan so I’ll hopefully get to see him play when he comes here.

Will be interesting. Savoie was 5’9 and struggled with physicality. Bedard is 5’8 but he will have the whole year to get in a groove unlike Savoie
Will be fun to see where these two guys end up post junior... hopefully NYR can grab one of those guys in '23!
John McKeon think the rangers will be too good buy then. Btw Savoie is ‘22 and bedard is ‘23
Savoie is the better natural skater IMO
Tyler Gates Savoie is the best skater I’ve seen besides McDavid

I used to walk home with him bc my sister and him were good friends

This guy is like putting Connor McDavid and Cole Caufield in a blender

Derek Lasker I agree
Why doesn’t pavel try a PTO?
Derek Lasker if you wanna someone who’s a blender of those two look no further then Ivan Miroshnichenko
John McKeon agreed
Bedard flexes his stick more than Phil Kessel
🤣🤣
Because its a 30 flex
Can’t wait to watch this kid play for my hometown! Go Pats! ❤️💙
Me too
Butt watch were probably going to lose in the finals like we did that one year
Who knows can’t wait for next year though
nah go canes
A thing you see in the most elite players is their edge work in their skating at 4:30 he shows his off pretty well.
insane speed generated with those crossovers
I don’t know why this just popped up on my fyp, but as a hawks fan, I’m happy
Seen him live. I’ve played with friends who went to the nhl and also one went 1st in whl draft. This kid looks like he is 25 when he is on the ice.

Jack Meh off you really out here Simpin for guys (it’s a joke don’t get triggered)
Nothing similar to mcdavid…
Why’re they all named Connor
And Elijah
Hes crazy i remember he was on my buddys lil bros team for awhile, id see him playing before my games sometimes dude was 7 playing with 13 year olds lol
This kid has good passing, hands, and shooting
u call him a kid and yet in ur videos it seems ur 11/12??
Grammar Check ah yes because if you’re younger then that makes them an adult. The dude is a kid regardless of the op’s age lmao

6:03
what a pass
Reminds me of eichel. Similar stride. Great shot. Some nice hands too. Just a little smaller
I’ve heard people compare Shane wright to eichel moreso than this guy
JRP 90 he will grow though, he is 14
Gabe O likely won’t be more than 5’10. Maybe 5’11
Derek Lasker Wright reminds me of Draisaitl
JRP 90 same
3:15 I didn't know you could break ankles like they do in basketball. What a dirty move.
Who’s watching this when he’s in the NHL
He just scored his first NHL goal
Head on a swivel!!!! Masterful!!
Only reason I clicked on video is thumbnail. I’m like wtf kinda shot is that. Gg pavel editor
This guy is amazing my cousin played with him and he made everyone look funny
#7 Savoie was absolutely flying! holy god!
I added much needed improvement to my game after watching this about 5 times.
Hes coming to the pats... MY CITY let’s gooo

Good god this kid is talented. Look forward to the Pats coming to Kamloops next season.
He just moved to Hv71 here in Jönköping, and that is where I play and live so it is very exiting
6:12 The goal was waved off!
regardless.. the hand eye is impressive
@@tylerbrandt6219 Ya. I did that below shoulder and it counted!
@@juliac2027 cool buddy! 👍🏼
@@tylerbrandt6219 Thanks!
Holy crap what a talent can’t wait for him to play on my Pats and label why didn’t you go anywhere in hockey if your that talented
Same age as his but only AA. What a stud
Finally someone is taking notice
Do one on Keelan Mansuy he is a very good hockey player from Saskatchewan plz do one on him
Kid's a beast and still has a ton of room to get better still
6:09 mans playing baseball
Jesus... the wheels on #7 at the start of the video. Kid was flying.
Damn this kid is only a year older than me
And probably 10 times better
Crazy watching this now as he’s in the NHL 😂
Well. It’s that year of nhl draft. Definitely made an impact
Extremely impressive skating
Love your videos
It'll be fun watching him play for the Pats
*I used to think that WHL meant women’s hockey league. Lol😂*
Same
It’s western hockey league right
Same
Same
funny, cause all other junior leagues are (or at least were) women's leagues in comparison.
that shot is insane ❌🧢
Looks like 2023 will be a great year.
Thanks for the great video!
0:14 it’s amazing
Im So pumped to watch this guy in Regina as many games as possible
He is gonna be big, 100%
Just to correct - 6th to receive exceptional status in the CHL, not WHL. He is the first player to ever receive exceptional status for the WHL.
This 2023 draft is going to be insane. Same with 2022.
God these kids are fast
Jesus man ur hands are amazing
Im actually so sad. I just moved 2 weeks ago from regina. Didnt get to see him play. :(
I lived in Regina for eight years and just moved to Vancouver. Of course NOW they get the next big thing.
He's going to make nhl for sure he is like a young crosby and mackinnon this guy is looking very good.
Projected to go number 1. What an idiot
@@ooko9 you don't know how to read idiot?
Barber he was the 1st one to get exceptional status in the whl and 6th to ever get exceptional status in canada.
He’s going to be amazing for sure
I wonder if we’ll ever see the day of an exceptional status goalie.
U should make this type of video about Roman marcot
Shane Wright is insane as well
Do a video with connor McDavid please!!!
You did a good job of pulling only the most impressive clips. I previously wasn't impressed by what I saw and thought Iguchi was more explosive but this kid has more tools it seems.
This didn’t age well at all
I hope this Bedard kid makes his way to Chicago...
Omg now 2024year and he is really one of the best players in the world
If you blink you'll miss this kids goals
We have the same birthday :D
I wish I had people looking at me too, I'm actually not as bad as I look lol. We shall see though 🤷♂️
Pavel, will you do a video about Michkov?
i remember when 5'8 wouldnt even get you drafted in the whl no matter how skilled
Some whl teams wont even consider size anymore. Mike johnston in portland tells his scouts to leave out size completely when telling him about prospects
5:48 the goalie for west van, heard he’s pretty good, someone should check him out sometime
Damian Perovic I hear he doesn’t have great profile pics though
Damian Perovic you’re 5’9, but best of luck
I can’t wait for bedard to get drafted in the nhl draft
0:53 you mean in CHL history
Freddy StellyMarner no it’s not learn about hockey
Sam LeDrew “6 players to receive exceptional status in the WHL” he said when he should of said CHL
@@jeremy9717 You're right. Bedard's the first player to be granted exceptional status for the WHL. The 6 others played in the O and Q
Jake Hryhoriw thank you 👍🏻
I think if you receive exceptional status than you can choose which league you play in because the said that the others opted to play in different leagues
Of course his name is Connor
Poor barber when he said he’s washed up 😂
Its true 😂
I keep tabs on all of them and I believe Shane Wright is going to be the next big star.
What do you think of savoie?
Welcome to the Regina Pats!
go raiders
bruh nah
Hey pav are you going to do berkly catton for next year?
Bedard vs alexis lafrenare
Skates like Crosby with a release like mathews
He’s actually the 1st to gain exceptional status in the WHL my man, not 6th. I think you meant 6th in all of the CHL
I love the video
The pats might have gold.
Wish in the showcase videos, the speed was at real time and not shifted.
Can you remake this video now that he’s played in the WHL
He’ll be somewhere between veleno and Shane Wright. Hopefully a Wright type
