Analyst Makes a Bold Prediction Regarding Connor Bedard in Comparison to Wayne Gretzky

Connor Bedard is deemed to earn the Most Valuable Player title out of any player partaking in this years World Juniors, with 16 points throughout the last ten periods of play- how could he not?

On a recent podcast with Tony Marinaro who is a big speaker with the TVA Sports company, Tony made a huge statement that is quite insane:

Tony considers Connor Bedard the best 17-year old player ever, and even said he's the best since Wayne Gretzky many years ago. According to Tony, Bedard at his age is better then Connor McDavid, Sidney Crosby, Alexander Ovechkin and others.

That statement truly exemplifies the #Tank4Bedard rally, and whoever earns the first overall pick in next years draft will be luckier than ever!
