Could Connor Bedard be traded? His General Manager provides the answer
Connor Bedard is currently 17-years-old and is 3 years into his Junior Hockey career. Bedard has played 102 games with the Regina Pats and put up 182 points to date. The young Center is high on scouts' NHL draft list. There's a lot of talk about the kid compared to Connor McDavid.
The controversy isn't related to the big show, as people are speculating about Bedard being moved.
However, Regina Pats GM says it's not happening:
Bedard has no desire to be moved from the Regina Pats, according to the GM but the truth lies far between what John Paddock said and what Connor Bedard wants:
For those asking about Bedard's no-trade clause, believe players who go to high school all have no-trades clauses in WHL.
Bedard was granted exceptional status at the age of 15 like John Tavares and Connor McDavid before him. Much like his exceptional status being so young, which means being 17 years old and enrolled in High School, the young Center won't be able to moved in a trade.
Regina Pats fans are safe from losing the possible #1 NHL draft pick anytime soon.
