Ok, we all know Darren Helm is faster than you are. But his hands can't often keep up with his legs.

Who can fly with the puck on a string? I'm going with Matt Duschene.(don't care if I butchered his name. He was going too fast to read it.) The kid scares me coming down the wing.

Without doing research, just going from memory, I would have to second your pick.

Gaborik is pretty damn fast with the puck...

Oh yeah for sure, haven't had to deal with him much the last couple years though.

Andy MacDonald used to be pretty quick too, not sure how injurues have slowed him down.

Are Mason Raymond's hands good enough to be included in this list?

no, they caught up with his feet for about a half of a season, don't know what happened after that.
but after that he broke his back. it'll be interesting to see if that affects the wheels.

Kesler is something to see flying down the wing, too.

I think Kesler is one that I remember from the skills competition.

Maybe it's Roy I'm thinking of. I thought one was pretty fast with the puck and liked to take it up ice himself?

No, Roy is the one that dives all the time, because he did it that one time in a game about 4 years ago. You must be thinking of Connolly?

I think he can carry the puck at speed very impressively ... his problem is what he does when he gets close to the net imo ... if you want "shot wide" hes your man

Matt Lombardi used to always be the guy everyone dropped the "if his hands ever caught up to his feet" saying on

Brett Lebda is the same way. Can fly but doesn't quite know what to do when it's time to stop or shoot.
