We have a fast team, but of the top of my head I'd say, Plekanec, Subban and Cole.

I think that reputation is exagerated, look at the St Louis game as an example.

One of the habs biggest problems is that they tried to build a fast team and failed, it was an even bigger problem than the speed. And it wasn't Martin, he had a fast team in Ottawa and used the speed.

Gomez, Gionta, Eller, Kosistyn are all faster than Pax. Again, I'm not saying he's a bad skater, just that it's not a strength of his game.

That's the problem people assume small teams are fast teams.

We're gonna get crushed.

Rangers are the hardest team to play against in the league IMO.

What to you defines a 'fast' player. Full speed? Acceleration?

You just said Pacioretty was slow because he couldn't blowout guys like Cole does. That's acceleration, not speed.

It certainly proves you don't know what you're talking about.

Show me.

And acceleration is more important than top speed.

Fastest skaters of the LEAGUE make it in about the same time as Pax did.
