Chicago Blackhawks star Connor Bedard, the first overall pick in the 2023 NHL Draft, shared his dream lineup last offseason. In a video for Front Office Sports, released on June 29, Bedard named five hockey legends who inspired him.
For forwards, Bedard chose Wayne Gretzky and Sidney Crosby. On defense, he picked Bobby Orr and Nicklas Lidstrom. As his goaltender, Bedard selected Patrick Roy. He described his choices as just some names that come to mind and said there are many great players to choose from.
"Ultimate lineup, I'll go Gretzky, David, Crosby, pretty basic defense I'll go Lidstrom and Orr and then a goalie, I'll go, I'll go Patrick Roy." Bedard said in the video. "Just some names that come to mind. You could you probably pick a lot of guys that play, but those are kind of the first guys to come to mind."
