Connor Bedard matches Eric Lindros’s Canadian world junior scoring record with four assists, pushing career point total to 31.
HALIFAX—It feels like the hockey world is only beginning to absorb just how good Connor Bedard is.
Bedard had three assists in the first period, helping the Canadians rocket out to a lead they’d never surrender to close out the regulation round with their third win in a row. His fourth gave him 31 points in 13 career world junior games, tying the Canadian record set by Eric Lindros over 21 games. “He tied Eric Lindros, so that’s a pretty big name to tie,” said Othmann. “He’s red hot right now, so we’re lucky to have him on our side wearing the Maple Leaf. So it’s good that he’s hot right now going into the important games.”
“They’re a good team,” Othmann said of the Slovaks. “They’re dangerous. They’ve gotten better. We’ve gotten better. So it’s going to be a good match up.”If there’s a pool game the players love most, it’s the New Year’s Eve battle — the fourth and final game of the regulation round, and the one they remember watching on TV as kids. It may feel as if Canada’s New Year’s Eve opponent is typically the Americans or the Russians.
