Marc-Andre Fleury Embarrasses Connor Bedard in a Hilarious �Welcome' to the NHL
The NHL has been buzzing this summer with the arrival of the highly-touted prospect, Connor Bedard. Recently, he may have just had his iconic "Welcome to the NHL" experience.
The Rookie Faces a Legend
Bedard's pre-season has been nothing short of impressive. In his first shootout opportunity, he faced off against one of the all-time greats in net.
The showdown was entertaining, as Bedard attempted a tricky move only to be bested by the seasoned Marc-Andre Fleury.
A Memorable Encounter
At 18, Bedard is still finding his place in the NHL. Clashes like these are invaluable for his growth. Fleury, clearly enjoying the spotlight, even playfully sent the puck towards Bedard's teammates post-duel.
While one incident won't define Bedard's NHL career, it's a testament to the fact that raw talent needs more than just skill to surpass elite goaltenders of today.
