Brett Berard was a fifth-round pick by the New York Rangers, a fairly unknown prospect.

But fans should find out, who he really is. As during the first day of Rookie Camp, he has managed to set himself apart from the pack.
He was drafted in the fifth round of 2020, so he hasn't had the burden of expectations thrust upon him, compared to someone like Kaapo Kakko.
Berard would show off his impressive puck-handling skills and speed at camp on Wednesday.
He's only 5'9" but plays fearlessly and his dynamic, offensive skills shone through camp.
As he took part in drills, the 22-year-old showed what he could do against defenders, flying past them and scoring a few goals.
He is thrilling to watch when he handles the puck and a good sign was that he was at the top of the depth charts, playing with Brennan Othmann during camp.
Berard played last season in the AHL with the Wolfpack, scoring 48 points( 25 G, 23 A) in 71 games.
According to Dan Rosen, we should look out for Berard to win a spot on the NHL roster as his rookie camp performance has been nothing short of impressive.
