Connor Bedard’s already-spectacular but short season will get even more minuscule with the Regina Pats.
The 15-year-old rookie phenom will be joining the Canadian team for the IIHF under-18 world championship in Frisco, Texas. He is the only 2005-born player to get the call to the team.
“It’s a dream come true. As a Canadian kid, you grow up with that dream of getting to wear a maple leaf and when I found out, I was very excited. It’s a super-special opportunity and that’s something I can’t wait for,” Bedard said following a 7-2 loss against the Brandon Wheat Kings on Thursday at the Brandt Centre.
