      That is what I first noticed...it was one of the first goals he scored and the pass was wobbly and he was being defended and it was almost as if that puck is on a wire as sooon a s it got close and he got that shot off and it was in the net before I even turned my eyes that like 1 mm to see the puck in the Net! I think only Joe Sakic and Paul Kariya had shots I remember being that laser beam accurate. I wish the Hawks would stop the Reichel as #2C Experiment. The Kid is a Wing, and were wasting the Talent he has. Anyone see the pass he made falling last night? ANd the 23 Points in 15 games last season when this team was about as bad. And I would like to see what Hawks fans and hockey fans think of Korchinski's rookie season. Nobody thoiught he would make the team, then stay more thjan a few games, and now he has made strides in his game. Wasnt he the Top or one of the Top 3 Defenseman in his Draft? I like the channel, thoughts? And I am givin up explaining to even bad wagon hopping because of Bedard Fans just as I did when Kane and Toews and thoase teams began Smashing the entire League, that we have like a whole group of not necessarily Bedard God Status, but very very talented players a year away not counting this Draft.

When I kept hearing about Bedard before the draft I thought "oh man, I hope they're not OVER-hyping this kid."

    Even though I'm not a Blackhawks fan anymore, and I absolutely fucking hate the team I used to root for, I am really, really happy to see Bedard do what he's done. The overwhelming about of hatred that most of the league has for this kid who is barely out of high school has been so repugnant. I've seen countless posts all over Twitter and Reddit about how Bedard needs to suffer a career-ending injury, someone needs to take his knees out or crosscheck him in the back of the head, or how he's actually mid as fuck and has no talent but the media is hyping him up for profit. I can only hope that my former favorite team loses Bedard and he requests a trade to another team. But even if he doesn't, and he keeps playing for the Hawks, I'm glad he's been so successful even in his first year.

They do not have 2 Franchise and Generational Talents back to back, hence the name. Lets get the 2 or 3, Pick that Insane Russian Kid Demridov, Slot Reichel BACK TO WING, We have Moore and Nazer Comin up, have a 21nd 1st round Pick to draft a #2C, or...Huh, if we win the 1st Pick, trade that BIOTCH TO THE SHARKS for their best under 25 and the 2nd pick and Bam, with the Rest of thr picks, the FAs that YOU and I allready know are looking at this team like Hossa and Campbell did back in 2007-2008, and this team is on a faster track than I even thinlk KD had assumed would happen. And Its so great to finally see Kurashev have someone to feed him passes too.

      +/- is a relevant stat when compared to the rest of the team. Blocked shots is another stat that needs to be looked at team wise. Bedard is consistently at the bottom of his team's stat line in +/- and blocked shots. Yes Bedard is the best offensive Rookie, but he is not the best overall Rookie as he is pretty much 1 dimensional. He will have a huge sophomore slump next year when his coach asks him to actually play hockey.

    its hard to argue that any other rookie is a more proficient hockey player than Bedard. If the trophy was awarded to the 'most valuable' or rookie with 'the largest impact' faber would be in the lead of the race. As it stands, Bedard is far and beyond the better player.

    This is one of those situations that make me hate how we evaluate skill in the nhl alot of the time. Bedard is having an amazing season, but he's a high skill forward putting up points in a season where scoring is way up. But his stats for face-offs and everything g else have been awful. And I've watched quite a few chicago games where you see him stay out super long cause it's Chicago so who cares and gets point from it.
    Where Faber is putting up great points for a defencemen and is playing as there top guy, with a positive +/-. And is doing a more difficult role the bedard more effectively... but idk points are all that matter even in the Norris so fuck it

    While The Flyers don't have one rookie of the year, they have multiple rookies that would equal a rookie of the year. They have the 2nd highest goal scoring rookie. Errson has been lights out and should definitely get some votes. Bedard would've gotten the trophy if he only had 1 goal and no assists. He's been really good though. Too bad his talent will be wasted on a team with no real future. He'll be well past his prime before The Hawks are contenders again. First chance he gets, he's leaving Chicago unless they offer him money he's not worth.
