As the skills competition fastest skater

Larkin is a thing of beauty. Hopefully he just puts it together.

His speed is effortless.

McDavid is really good obviously, but people horribly overrate his speed. And it shows.

 

[Martinez]

AA is faster

 

[SpookyTsuki]

Now we can finally settle it

Aa is totally faster then mcdavid. I remember those threads and how aa lost by a lot

Next Game In Edmonton, they should have a whole media hoopla about fastest skater, and have a skate off !

P.S. AA and Grabner should show up too!!

Grab couldn't even challenge for third in that event

McDavid's speed is overrated.

 

[Konnan511]

Holmstrom is quicker.

As medicore as the Wings are this year, we have three of the fastest players in the NHL.

You're right, AA would be third, and maybe arguably first.

McDavid's speed is overrated.

While that is true, he's still one of the fastest in the league.

What sets him apart from the other fast players(and every player in the league except maybe Karlsson for that matter) is that he can consistently make great plays at that speed.

I think aa would be first

Then mcdavid and Larkin are interchangeable

If mcdavid did beat Larkin it would be by fractions

And we all know aa is a quicker skater. Not better but quicker

Nobody is faster with puck control in the league than Connor McDavid. He is the fastest player with the puck since Bure.

I am surprised they didn't give McDavid the bigger start. I am also stunned that over half the hockey watching world doesn't understand when timed out blue line to blue line for a stand still start that Larkin still beat Gartner's record anyway. Which apparently is a big point of contention, thought once that evidence came out people would get quiet but I guess I was wrong...

Now I know why Detroit's offense is struggling. Their skaters are too fast.

If they took longer to get into the zone (before launching a harmless shot, either into the pads, or wide of the net altogether), their time of possession would be much higher. Problems solved!

 

[GoAwayDanCleary]

If only he used that speed through the middle of the ice.

 

[jolly roger]

AA is faster

I agree. Just ask Larkin. I'd bet he knows.

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

I agree. Just ask Larkin. I'd bet he knows.

Both guys have said Helm is faster is really all we have on that in terms of a team race.

Truth
Larkin showed some real class, I am all for a 1 on 1 race when Detroit comes to Edmonton

 

[Dotter]

lol this is so delusional I actually feel sorry for you there bud

this guy was so salty he spent the entire day yesterday on the main boards regurgitating exactly what he wrote above, literally dozens of times until they closed the thread

you're closet love for mcdavid is hilarious

AA appears faster than Larkin, and Larkin skated in 12.894. McDavid only did it in 13.020. I think it is fair to say that AA is faster. But it would be fun to see them go head to head.

Quick question, who is AA?

 

[Ezekial]

Larkin, AA and Helm are all faster than Mcdavid.

User name checks out.

Quick question, who is AA?

Andreas Athanisiou, possibly the fastest skater in the league.

Greek Lightning. Probably the fastest skater in the NHL.

I think AA could give mcdavid a run for his money in that regard
