Connor Bedard Makes a Decision That Shows he's a True Leader

Connor Bedard is no ordinary player. It's safe to say he's the prospect fans have been most eager to see since the Leafs drafted Auston Matthews.

Bedard has the talent and speed to play in the NHL. Today, he made a decision that shows his maturity as well.

What Makes Him Different?

Apart from his unique talent on the ice, Bedard is also very mature for his age.

The Blackhawks are preparing for the start of their activities with the annual rookie tournament.

While many young players would love to stay at home and cash the paycheck, Bedard will take part in the tournament, even if his spot on the lineup is anything but confirmed.

Beyond the Danger

Of course, it's a risk to put Bedard on the ice in such a tournament, where every player wants to prove themselves by playing a physical game. However, he'll face the same kind of situations in the NHL. He needs to prepare accordingly.

This is just an example of who Bedard is. He knows that he isn't above anyone and understands how to lead.

With this attitude, nothing will stand in the way of Bedard's success in the NHL.
