Connor Bedard Faces Backlash For Refusing To Sign A Young Fans Jersey
The NHL has been on Connor Bedard watch since the young phenom was drafted by Chicago, and now, he's finding out about the ugly side of sports media in the spotlight.
An impressive start
Despite his struggles on the faceoff and some growing pains, Connor Bedard's start to his NHL career has been a good one, and with the Blackhawks picking up some solid wins, this team is confident in their future.
Bedard has a goal and two assists through four games after playing against some tough teams in some iconic locations, but now, he's under scrutiny for the first time in his career.
A hilarious interaction
Despite his reputation as a good guy, Bedard was recently caught on film denying a fan an autograph, and while that doesn't sound good for the top pick, it was a fan asking him to sign a Montreal Canadiens jersey.

With a smile on his face, Bedard amusingly turned down the opportunity for the fan, and while some people might hate the move, it's clear he's dedicated to the Blackhawks and won't sign opposing teams jersey's, so it's safe to say that this likely won't land him in too much media scrutiny.
