GDT: NHL All-Star Skills Competition - January 27th - 7PM

[cpsman]

Just when I thought McDavid was getting less awkward in his interviews, he gives an interview like that lol.

I'm pretty sure he beat Point by more than what he did. The people manning the clock need to do a better job haha

 

[Straight Fire]

Point did really well, I didn't think he would ge that close to McDavid.

Very well. Razor thin difference really.

 

[ThirdManIn]

was mcdavid slow or was point just that fast?

Point's pretty damn fast.

 

[ujju2]

Not a fan of the new skills competition format. At all. I liked the character the old format would bring out in the players.

 

[CalgarySnow]

Eichles hair isn’t very aerodynamic

To be fair with that hair he’s limited as to what you can do

 

[Del Preston]

was mcdavid slow or was point just that fast?

McDavid's beard slowed him down.

 

[sepHF]

Why did McDavid start so far back from the starting line? He could've moved up a bit

 

[Based Anime Fan]

that was extremely lame, the solo skating lacks the drama that the fastest skater had when they had head-to-head heats

My fear was always someone whiping out and taking the other guy out with him. I have no issues with the solo. It's the way it was done way back.

I think Point was fast. But McDavid is ridiculously fast. Point did well

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

Best skater in NHL history IMO.

Orr, Perreault, Gartner, Bure also in the convo.

With the puck on his stick I think McDavid is in a conversation by himself tbh. Unreal skating

 

[Captain Bowie]

Wish they had rookies here.

Boeser's there.

Absolutely, he's faster with the puck on the stick it's crazy.

 

[PensPlz]

Take a shot every time someone says "fun".

 

[Siddi]

All that build up and McDavid is hardly faster lol. Big ****ing deal.

This!

Point and Mcdavid basically had the same time.

 

[Sabresruletheschool]

Eichel took a studder step at the beginning. I think he would have made it pretty close if it wasn't for that

 

[SI90]

Boeser's there.

He’s no rookie. He’s an All Star!!

 

[ThirdManIn]

Flo Rida may be washed up, but he'll never be as lame as the random nobodies who realize they are in the camera's shot and decide to show off the logo on their jerseys because they saw Kobe do it once.

There's no way it's a manual clock, it's obviously timed by lasers.

 

[nabob]

Why did McDavid start so far back from the starting line? He could've moved up a bit

Just to make things fair

think the time starts when they break the plane of the line.

 

[Straight Fire]

McDavid should've told them to go upstairs and review the lap

All star game misconduct lol

 

[SI90]

Eichel took a studder step at the beginning. I think he would have made it pretty close if it wasn't for that

No he wouldn’t have. Especially with that old rug on his head

 

[ujju2]

If NHLers aren't going to the Olympics for hockey, McDavid should just claim he's a speed skater.

 

[Sam Spade]

Wow. Actually a lot closer than I thought. Point almost had him.

In theory I wish Ovechkin would do this, he looks faster in games than almost all those guys. In reality, I wouldn't want him to get hurt.

 

[hockeykicker]

nolan trotz is there

 

[oconnor9sean]

I just saw Klingberg is in the hardest shot competition....why?!
