Here is the telling one. Orlov is a fast and skilled defenseman.
Orlov owns Dallas with his speed and skill


Wood turns Orlov into a pylon with his speed.


He is on another level.

Last 5 votes have all been no. Let's see the proof. Seems like there are a lot more fans here of 97 than Wood. Not many devils fans on here as well.

It's extremely close in a straight line, even with the puck. He just can't do the things with the puck that McDavid does, nor does he have the lateral mobility of McDavid.

McDavid is the fastest ever within the context of a hockey game.
Because he has Art Ross? Because he is best player in game? Just because he is best player doesn't mean he is faster than Miles Wood.

Bure is also faster alltime player. Just imagine 94 Bure with today's skates. Bure is fastest player to ever lace them up and it's not close

Mcdavid's the fastest skater in the league

/Thread

I would find the skills comp to be way more interesting if every team submitted one player for every contest. 31 players in the fastest skater race to see who is truly fastest, not just who is fastest at that particular game.

Same for hardest shot etc. Someone like Radko Gudas doesn't need to be an all-star but I want him there if he can slap one 105MPH+

Haha come on, it's certainly close and McDavid is faster.

Being a fan of one player or one team over the other shouldn’t influence a choice here.

How juvenile and pathetic is that?

My favourite team is the Habs so I’m going to make myself look like a complete moron by claiming a B level Habs player is better than an A level player of another team?

Than Bure? On a breakaway he'd have no hope whatsoever of keeping up. When it comes to changing direction that's when it gets closer and McDavid could even be ahead. But I wouldn't call him faster only because of that.
