Hell of a coach.

He's – playoff Q –

just finds the answers as a series goes along.

Can I go back to Bedard real quick?

Did you see enough from him this year?

Because the talk obviously in the national media and in the local media was like the first two years of Bedard, you saw the flashes, but there was maybe a little something missing.

It feels like this year he was having that leap where everything was coming together and

He was playing hard on both ends.

He was doing the right things.

I know Biz has been a little critical of him at times.

Did you see that?

It was like, okay, this is exactly what he was advertised.

It might have taken a couple years, but he's finally here.

i didn't know he had i knew he had this in him i i thought he had this in him but i didn't know it'd be this quick based on last year and yeah he was one of the best players in the league before he went down i hope it's just a couple weeks and he's he's 20 that's the thing that people forget like you he's 20 years old his first two years he's like you know yeah it wasn't perfect and i think the hype obviously of him coming in the draft was like he's going to be instantly incredible but

This year has been awesome.

Yeah, if he doesn't, I agree.

Do you think he'll get on Team Canada if he's healthy?

It's so loaded.

Yeah, that's way faster if you're able to constantly get, like, one to two miles an hour faster over the course of a year.

Yeah, it is crazy that as a 20-year-old, you're not done growing.
