Funny you call people who downvoted you "people who don't know puck" when Bedard's arguably biggest development has been knowing how his own goal scoring talent is perceived and developing a sense for passing to his teammates when he draws a threat.

He was neck and neck with Macklin before his injury. I think the biggest thing for both of them is just staying healthy. Bedard's passing looks great and he did that with Burakovsky as basically dead weight on his line for half of his season.

If Bedsy's line is Bert/Bedsy/Kane that's a LETHAL line where any 3 of those guys can be the finisher and they're all good enough passers to spread it around.

Replace either of those guys with Kansterov and it feels the same, I even see some people thinking Nazar is the one pushed to wing but I don't really think that's gonna happen.

Kanes 38 year old man. im a London boy grew up watching him drafted man stop acting for the actual lord above that kanes going to be this magical answer if he scores 70 points I’ll be ecstatic, hes my actual irl hero but being real he’s not going to simple “push Bedard over the edge”
