2022 NHL All-Star Skills Competition: Hardest Shot

Watch the FULL Hardest Shot Event in the 2022 NHL Skills Competition, where we pit the favourite heading in, and past winner in Lightning Dman Victor Hedman against public enemy #1, Capitals enforcer and sniper Tom Wilson.

In an alternate timeline, Victor Hedman is swinging a battleax on an ancient battlefield and using the skulls of his enemies as trophies and home decor in his viking longhouse.

The hardest shot contest needs more Chara and Weber.

42 year old Zdeno Chara and Injured Shea Weber would still crack 105 🤣

Crazy to think Pettersson's shot from 2 years ago would have gotten second this year, and he might have won this year, seeing as how he beat Hedman that year and it seems they are using special pucks for this event compared to last which may be faster, plus Pettersson having gained weight can only help.

I would of loved to see Big Z for his last all star. Happy for Victor 💪🏽

[floridamanknives]

As a Lightning fan I couldn’t be happier seeing Hedman win!!

I like the Pavelski family high five train at 3:11!

Shea Weber in the crowd: ''Take my beer''

They should get them all wasted and then try the skills competition.

Why Timo Meier got put on the hardest shot competition is beyond me. He'd be a more suitable candidate for the fastest skater.

[XaviRonaldo]

Oh look at that. Tom Wilson seems well liked

[tomwilson]

Should just have the hardest shooter from each team

[tylerdubbin]

Thank you for not putting terrible music over this fun competition

The commentator keeps saying "they are making contact 3 or 5 inches behind the puck." This is certainly not the case if you watch closely. Often times their blades touch the ice much further away from the puck.. I would say 10-12 inches and even 15 at times.
Generally 3-5 inches behind the puck isn't enough room and time for the stick to flex to its capacity and release its energy into the puck like an archers bow pushing an arrow.

[Captndarty]

Amazing with all of the training and technology with the sticks how much quicker and faster the game has become yet the speed of slap shots have just flatlined over the last 20 years.

[GeorgeNorberg]

Best part is that Victor Hedman had Håkan Hellströms "Din tid kommer" song playing. What a banger

[double.a.fishin]

Who would’ve ever thought Wilson would have slap shot that fast and accurate 😮

[Laughlin]

That's got to difficult to have to be on Wilson's team and pretending to like him for a couple hours a year.

[NHLfan]

Wilson needs more credit gotta love Wilson got his Adrienne going to be his first All Star love Willy!

[sakebeton]

What am I seeingggg?? Tom Wilson is an all Star??😵‍💫😂
