- Mckenna has had a similar season to what his cousin ( Connor Bedard ) had during his draft -1 year... but McKenna was during his draft -2 year. He is simply incredible and may honestly be the next face of the league for the next generation of NHL player.

0:21 First time seeing this kid, and that is the best executed move I've ever seen... so quick, yet so smooth and clean...
bro how is it possible for a 16 yr old to be so good at hockey lmao
It runs in the family I guess… first Bedard now him
@@TChockeyTheir cousins by marriage funny enough.
Mack Celebrini set the 16 year old scoring record in the USHL with 46 goals. Its possible.
@@Lebowski55 macklin youngest ever to win hobey.
If you told me this guy's gonna be the greatest player of all times, I'd believe you.
He is lowkey gonna be an all time great
Great to see Canada still producing current and future potential superstars.
kid is amazing! Hope he gets treated well on his journey to stardom!
Holy shit these highlights are nice
only nice Highlight on this channel my guy
First time I've actually watched him after seeing the hype and those little touches he does to get around and through traffic are underrated imo. He also seems to anticipate and then exploit the little gaps that open up between opposing players on the rush really well. If you watch his head and body movement he looks like he's one step ahead. Excited to see his development and future unfold.
Hopefully Pittsburgh's impending rebuild puts them in a position to land one of these big prospects before Sid retires (as much as I'd like to see him play forever)
The pens would make a big mistake not to tank for the 2026 Draft when you have this type of player available to restart a dynasty with. He is he next big thing
yeah it would be a jackpot if Penguins would somehow get McKenna 😌🙏
just saw three games from this kid playing in Finland U18 championships and winning gold - this dude is amazing 👌
@@maya_laroy he carried hardd
@@TChockey yeah he’s amazing 🤩👌
Technical kid❤
Best day ever so happy
hope you liked the vid 🔥🔥🔥
I got to see his first career WHL goal last year in person which was ironically against his cousin's Regina Pats. Kid is going to be something special
you’re lucky to stay in regina 😅
@@TChockey I live in Medicine Hat which is where the game was. We beat Bedard's Pats 7-0 lol. But I used to live in Regina actually
Actually tho McKenna is as generational as can be. To me he’s basically McDavid with obviously inferior skating (although McKenna is a great skater) but a way better shot and better passing statistics at the same age. McKenna is already the greatest passer in all NA junior leagues, his technique is phenomenal with built in manipulation movements, but he also knows how to create space for lanes, and how to direct teammates into open lanes. He’s also one of the best chance for self creators in the last decade, with his shot, hands, and brains he just gets chance after chance and he scores on a lot of em. He’s also 16, so like.
great report for real! He really is that good and he still has 2 full year left in the W before his draft 😭
@@TChockey its soooo over for everyone
Nah Hagens is probably the better passer right now. McKenna might already be the better shooter and handler tho. Hagens easily the better skater
@@Triflegut87 Hagens is not a better passer. In a harder league, McKenna had better per 60 stats in xA1, high danger passes, shot assists and slot passes. Mitch Brown of EP had a calculated pass value stat that determines how successful the passes are and McKenna blows Hagens out of the water. McKenna simply dominates the playmaking game, he’s too good at creating lanes and succeeding on every thread.
if i didnt look at the back of his jersey and hear the commentating i would have thought that was bedard postures are so similar.
Absolutely! He is even faster than Bedard... he's gonna be a problem next year in the W
Next season, Tigers are gonna light the entire WHL on fire, with their top prospect new comers and McKenna being 1 more year experienced.
the Ruck twins are sooooooo frigging goood. - their top 6 is going to be the greatest ever seen in the WHL
Oh yeah you are right, Basha, Lindstrom and Mckenna are gonna be 1 year older too ...they are gonna be scary
this guy a cheat code, he is fucking good
absolutely nuts
I’ve watched this video minimum nine times and it’s only been out four days, the fuck.
Im glad you liked it my guy. But I gotta say I’v watched it a couple of times too he is soooo good
Pavel Bure with elite playmaking. This guy's gonna make very good players look not so good
he make the WHL look like a beer league
He is so big for 16, his ceiling is so high.
Mcdavid type of ceiling no joke
@@TChockeyhe’s generational version of Kuch.
Perry already has eyes set on his mom.
Bro chilll
I want my guy to play for the Leafs. We need the help.
Start the rebuild next year and maybe they will have a shot at him during the 2026 draft
Mattews wouldn't even be enough of a trade for him.
I’m gonna say it, he’s Gretzky level IQ
Mcdavid Gretzky Crosby type of talent
@@TChockey when I first saw his highlights I guess I wasn’t wowed like a Mcdavid type obvious wow, but then watching more of highlights and you notice just how crazy smart he is on this ice, He sees the games 2-3 steps ahead of everyone and then add elite playmaking, elite shot , super humble kid , perfect size. He’s going to be very very special
Когда этот парень выйдет на драфт,начнётся битва команд в виде сливов,чтоб урвать его)
Точно, такой тип игроков настолько редок, и команды будут жаждать такого парня, как он.
I love you❤
I love you too❤
me too jonny!
😅 me too bud
Bedard's cousin in law
Ik its crazy
why they dressed like patrick star?
Idk bro maybe a charity game
yeah i was wondering the same! 😂😅
@@TChockeygoal horn has to be KFC by glorb. 😂😂😂
These hands... wtf
Illegal
The term generational talent loses a little something when you get them every few years. I guarantee there will be another one in 2-3 years.
yeah this new generation is something else man. I’m not against that tho
1:26 disgusting 🤢 🤢 🤢
staight up unfair
this guys kinda average tbh don't understand the hype. he wouldn't last a minute in the NZIHL
