So it's not...

You know, it wasn't the most surprising they were where they ranked in goal scoring last year.

So to have him emerge as this like really good all around 3C and, you know, I think you could just label him as a middle six center because he's been playing a lot more.

You know, that goal scoring is more surprising, but it's so needed there.

Yeah, they're fun.

Like I'm tuning into their games and I'm excited about it, which I haven't said in a minute because they got kind of bedarred and obviously things didn't go as planned year one with him in the lineup.

And I think it's really hard to be a first overall pick because others have set the bar so high.

But generally speaking, like if you're a team that drafts first overall, you're really bad.

So that player now is jumping into the mix and expected to be like the guy.

And it's just not always going to happen.

Not everybody's Conor McDavid.

And then you have Macklin Celebrini come in last year and just start crushing it out of the gates on another bad team.

And it's like, oh, why isn't Bedard doing it?

So the vibes feel different.

And it starts with him because he looks a lot better.

He looks more confident.

He looks more decisive.

And I think we're seeing him play to his strengths.

But

you know, it's not just him anymore.
