They should wear helmets!
Wasn’t Kirill Supposed to be in this
if there was a fighting skill competition Ovechkin will KO this pussynikov, and ovi's Kid could put a 100$ bill in his mouth like the million dollarman lol
Not sure why the league chose Taransenko off the blues instead of Kyrou. You know, that guy the leads the team in scoring? The guy who won fastest skater last year? This pool of skaters seemed slow.
A. They should definitely wear helmets flying around at high speeds like this.
B. Maroon would win it if they put a slide of pizza in front of him
Those Avs retro jerseys are horrible. I saw the C and thought Calgary? Man, worst retro look by far, ugly sweater
this is what happens when you dont get a running start!
How do they choose who is in these events? No McDavid, Mackinnon, or last year's winner, Kyrou.
Fast skaters none the less…but left fans wanting more
I'm confused cause kaprizov was involved in nothing after being listed as one of the fastest skater contestants
Baby McDavid. Scared to participate
Good job chandler Stephenson!! Coming from Saskatchewan🌾
BREAKING NEWS: next year this will be replaced by a hot dog eating competition
Larkin doesnt win without a rolling start what a surprise.
I went to a Detroit Vancouver game in the mid nineties and saw Sergei Federov in the pre-game skate.
He could fly.
Shisterken? exactly reminds me of him 👍👍😂😂
always asking myself why the players don't wear a helmet. As i saw Makar going down i immidiatly felt "good question" could have gone worse
I love how for one year they allowed a rolling start, and ever since then it’s a standard start. They really should remove Larkins “fastest” skater record.
No one wants to do it because no puck being carried. What does it prove? Can we stop stating that the record is held by Larkin. He cheated and started further back that year than everyone else. That time should be wiped
Svech is a beauty! His smile the whole way through, what a guy🔥👏
他の競技と違って顔が真剣
Let’s Go Canes!
What the heck was Dylan Larkin doing. He looked like he was skating at 80%, I think he felt bad for the other guys.
Larkin didn’t even try
I always find it funny that "the fastest skater" is limited to the all-star game. Never mind that there are numerous skaters across multiple teams that have put up better numbers, they didn't make the all-star game, so they don't count.
this applies to most of the skills competition
Former 'Cane interviewing an all-star 'Cane. Love it!
MISTA SVECHNIKOV!
Fastest skater who was voted to compete due to popularity not ability for fastest skater. Garbage and it makes the winner look like garbage.
Whatta beautiful smiles 😃 Andrei! We wuv 💓 you! Shine on and have fun 👍 ✨️
Miss the good old days when it seem more competitive when they raced against one another.
It’s nice to see these guys smiling and appearing to be human beings as opposed to the painfully robotic post-game interviews they give throughout the season.😃👍🏾
This does not really prove who is the fastest skater because going around in a circle does not replicate the way speed is needed or relevant in an actual hockey situation which is the time a player needs to reach the fastest speed a player reaches in a STRAIGHT line from a standing start.
cale makar looked like he was on pace to beat the record
Fiala is under-rated
its good to see makar still smiling even though he fell
Late starts make the difference.
Pat maroon should have “carried to 3 championships” below his name
They should totally start one on backwards skating ! And put in some Dmen and Makar will take it any day 😎🔥
Those highly advertised Supreme Machs have failed Makar. 😅
They should make a 100m outdoor track and then there’s no risk of falling and you can actually see if they can beat Usian Bolt’s 9.58s
Worst ever. Lame
The message!
They should do this without a stick
Go Canes!!
What if they did this competition with a puck?
Mcdavid would had won if he was in this competition again
Where’s mcdavid
We all knew Makar was going to win if he didn’t fall
I think one year this should be tried without the stick.
ya kno, just to see sumthin..
