I can't even imagine the pressure placed on some of these young kids in hockey today.
However when you're predicted to be better than the best player in the world Connor Mcdavid, you got some serious pressure on your shoulders. I'm talking about none other than 16 year old hockey phenom Connor Bedard.
For those who don't know him yet you will. Connor Bedard is a 16 year old hockey star playing for the Regina St Pat's in the Western Hockey League. Connor Bedard is already projected to be the 1st overall pick in the 2023 NHL entry draft.
Connor Bedard put his name in the record books to be the youngest player in Canadian Hockey League history to score 50 goal and crack over 100 points.
That's saying a lot about this kids potential considering all the stars who came through the CHL that are in the NHL right now. A lot of teams already licking their cops to draft Bedard next season.
