A coach on Connor Bedard: β€œI think a lot of people might say something along the lines of 'He's simplified his game.' I don't think that's true.”

β€œI think he's a creative, dynamic offensive mind who's figured out what's worked and, more importantly, some stuff that won't work.”

7. Vacant
8. Vacant

And then I'd have about 20 teams all piled into the 15-23 range.
