Quick Scoop: What Stick Does Connor Bedard Use?

Why This Stick?

Bedard chose the Rekker Legend Pro for its low kick point , which enables his signature quick release on wrist shots and snapshots—the shot types he relies on most. The stick's Featherlite XT technology reduces weight throughout the shaft and blade, creating proportional balance from upper shaft to blade toe.

"His main reasons are likely based on quick release and shot power. His preferred shot type is either wrist shots or snapshots."

Earlier Career Sticks

Before Sher-Wood, Bedard used Bauer sticks almost exclusively:

  • Bauer Nexus Tracer (360g) – favored during junior years for ultra-light weight and fast release
  • Bauer AG5NT (335g) – the lightest stick on market, used in his last junior game and 2023 World Juniors (red version)

Special Edition Note

In December 2024, Sher-Wood released a special edition Rekker Legend Pro honoring Chicago's hockey history while maintaining Bedard's exact performance specs.
