Connor Bedard Receives a Huge Honouring by The NHL
The NHL Network has unveiled its annual Top 50 Prospects list, and this year, the spotlight is on the recently drafted players, dominating the top positions. Leading the pack is Chicago Blackhawks' anticipated first-line center, Connor Bedard, touted as a potential generational talent.
However, opinions are divided, with some suggesting a strong recency bias in this year's rankings.
Notably, Luke Hughes, a 2021 draft pick for the New Jersey Devils, claims the fifth spot as the top defenseman, while Minnesota Wild's Jesper Wallstedt holds the #21 position as the leading goaltender in the list.
