Ah, a post with actual substance, thanks Kotl!I gotta say that I like how Bedard scored the two goals:
1st one, a greasy, blue collar, drive the net and not give up on the play goal.
2nd one, A no frills, no nonsense quick snapper to beat the goalie after the previous line tried some unnecessary Harlem Globetrooters shit that they had nowhere near the skill of pulling off, and caused a breakway in the other direction. Here's hoping the guys who caused it (Reichel, Korch, and I believe Beaulivier) are carrying Bedard and Mrazek's luggage on the next road game.
The fact that he can do pretty *and* blue collar goals warms my pancreas. It shows he doesn't think of himself as "too good" to play nose-to-the-grindstone.
To your 2nd point it wasn't a snapshot. It was a ridiculously difficult wristshot. In a snapshot you use the heel of the stick, Bedard did a mini toe drag wristshot in traffic. The flex on Bedards stick caused a curveball motion on the puck on release. Dude is fucking insane.I gotta say that I like how Bedard scored the two goals:

Not sure that's accurate. A snapshot can be performed with any part of the stick (toe), not just the heel.To your 2nd point it wasn't a snapshot. It was a ridiculously difficult wristshot.
