Today Connor Bedard finally spoke out after the release of Corey Perry from the Blackhawks. <h2>Bedard Responds To Perry Situation And Rumors</h2> Connor Bedard spoke with the media in Winnipeg today ahead of the team's game tomorrow. During his availability, he was asked about the Corey Perry rumors and their effect on him. <q>Winnipeg media asked Connor Bedard about the impact of the Perry «rumors» today. Frankly, I don't think this was an appropriate time to do so. But I do think his response is worth posting: «It's just a bunch of BS on the internet. It's of course been an affect on myself and my family, and that's not fair. But it's out of our control. It's all just fake, made-up stuff.»</q> <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/BenPopeCST/status/1730694843301875818?s=20&fbclid=IwAR3_YCr9FGgdaK9yWvHXEpG2DWyHiloyrmFn1veQ6DixrM6BrbgKdOmOJyw'> </a></blockquote></div> Bedard brushed off the validity of any rumors while acknowledging the rumors did have an impact on him and his family. Bedard and the Blackhawks will now be able to get back to the things within their control with Perry now no longer a part of the organization. Bedard will look to continue his impressive rookie campaign against the Winnipeg Jets tomorrow afternoon.
