Even so, despite being at fault, Bedard didn't hesitate to check up on his competitor after the fact.
The penalty occurred at 10:34 of the third period, where Bedard was penalized for two minutes.
After Bedard was sent to the box, you could see his concern for Kesselring and how he was doing afterward.
To a fault, Bedard shows empathy toward his fellow competitors, which is a quality too seldom seen in the NHL.
Bedard has 20 goals and 31 assists for 51 points in the 2023-2024 season.
