On the second goal, however, McDavid topped out at 40.9 kilometers an hour. That’s 37.3 feet per second. Now on this one, McDavid stayed in a straight line and pushed the puck up the ice so he could skate without handling it. McDavid hit 40.9 kilometers an hour right before he got to the net AND THEN STOPPED INSTANTLY to deposit the puck past Smith. You can get whiplash if your car goes from 40 to 0 that quickly. As has been mentioned many times online, you can get a speeding ticket in a school zone for travelling 40 kilometers an hour.

Unprecedented. He's a sport changing player.
