Social Media Stir with Melanie Bedard
Things got messier when people started saying Perry was involved with Melanie Bedard, Connor Bedard's mom. Social media, like Reddit and the old Twitter, was full of rumors about them.
The team's GM, Kyle Davidson, shut down the rumors fast. He said no other players or their families were involved, calling the rumors untrue and awful.
