Bedard is a Competitive Player Which Makes Him Great

Bedard is a competitive person, which is why he is the best rookie in the NHL, and will likely have a long career in hockey. It is this drive that likely keeps him working on his game, and isn't necessarily a bad thing to show some emotion sometimes.
