Connor Bedard reveals what he hates the most about being in the NHL
Connor Bedard is on his way to being one of the biggest stars in the NHL, but now the young forward reveals what he hates most about that.
Being in hockey at an elite level, especially in Canada will bring with it plenty of hype and excitement, but it also means incredible amounts of pressure, and that's something that Connor Bedard has been dealing with since he was 12 years old. That didn't stop him from becoming the No. 1 overall pick in the 2023 NHL Draft however, and given the incredible start to his NHL career, which has involved already playing for team Canada when he was just 18, the league is hoping he will become the next Sidney Crosby or Connor McDavid.
That was on full display when he was recently involved in a 'Gen Z' NHL advertisement, one which caught the attention of many on social media due to the shock that the NHL was actually promoting its top stars.
Despite playing a prominent role, Bedard wasn't that thrilled to be a part of the ad, even though it cements him as the future of the NHL.
Then, the young phenom was asked about his role within the league in the media, and unsurprisingly, he doesn't like that either, and while he understands it, he admits it's his least favourite part of the job.
It's very clear to tell that Bedard isn't comfortable with the media aspect of the NHL yet, as he, like McDavid is yet to show any major personality, but given the talent, he will continue letting his play on the ice speak for itself.
