The safe bet was not to pick Edmonton Oilers defenceman Taylor Chorney. After all, Taylor Hall, Magnus Paajarvi and Andrew Cogliano were among those vying for the team’s fastest skater title.

But after the speedsters had zipped around the ice in the Oilers annual skills competition at Rexall Place on Saturday, it was Chorney who had bragging rights. He stopped the clock in 13.942, followed by Liam Reddox (14.077), Hall (14.112), Linus Omark (14.270), Paajarvi (14.742) and Cogliano, the perennial runner-up, who slipped up on the second corner. He stayed on his feet, but pulled in last at 15.850.

Drouin, Skinner, Gaudreau

I'm not sure if Duncan Keith is actually fast or just looks so damn smooth

Gaudreau belongs nowhere near this list

His former Capital teammate Nate Schmidt makes Taylor Chorney look like Hal Gil. (If this thread is about fastest skaters who aren't big names)

Did everyone already forget Carl Hagelin lol

 

[Bouboumaster]

Paul Byron

Zemgus Girgensons has great top speed but unfortunately he seems to fall over a lot.

 

[Luddowich]

J.T Brown sure can skate, if only he could control the puck.

 

[FooteBahl]

Taylor Hall is pretty fast.

If Mcleod makes the squad, Hall would be the third fastest guy on the team.

 

[Brent Burns]

Every thread on HF just becomes a homer contest. Very few of the guys listed in this thread are considered "some of the fastest in the league"

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

Among the old guys, I'll mention Matt Cullen and the "Ice Cheetah" Jason Chimera. Patrick Marleau can wheel for his age too.

 

[THall4]

Miles Wood can flat out burn ...would love to see a one on one with McDavid

 

[TMLeafs18]

Andreas Athanasiou is crazy fast. The guy can fly

 

[Beautvillier]

leddy

 

[armani]

Dzingle, he is the fastest player in the Sens roster (pre-Cooke Karlsson was super fast).

 

[BlueDream]

Magnus Paajarvi is very fast.
