Loading…NHL Edge puts tracking chips in every puck and player jersey, measuring how fast skaters move, how often they hit top speed and how far they travel. Among the 636 skaters with at least 20 games in 2025-26, the average top speed was 22.3 mph. Beck Malenstyn was the fastest, reaching 24.9 mph, and Connor McDavid logged the most bursts above 22 mph (151).
