The Michigan-style goals from Connor Bedard and Trevor Zegras on Saturday impressed many observers, including PK Subban.
The former Montreal Canadiens also posted a video on the topic on his X account (formerly Twitter), where he expressed his admiration for the two young players after their great goals.

“Trevor Zegras and Connor Bedard, [c’est] absolutely disgusting,” Subban exclaimed. In that moment, they expose not just the goalie, but all five players on the ice, embarrassing them in front of 20,000 people and millions of viewers from coast to coast. I think it’s absolutely brilliant.”
However, the 2013 Norris Trophy winner wanted to warn players on the Chicago Blackhawks and Anaheim Ducks.
“Is it great for hockey? “Well, I don’t know,” he continued. I’ll tell you something: If I played, I would probably meet her.”
Bedard has 13 goals and 17 assists for 30 points in 33 games this season. Zegras is having a difficult season with just two goals and one assist for three points in 13 games.
