gleason or gardiner. if you did the nhl around the rink race it would be close. they might not be the quickest first few steps but both have good feet underneath them and can really get going. Gardiner looks taller than 6-1, my guess would be 6-2 or 6-3. He's only 17 and can skate with that frame...scary. It will be fun to see these guys play on the big sheets in the wcha.

I'd bet a cold one on Bobcat.

I was trying to take anything away from Barnes or Bergland, they are both very nice players and will play at the next level. I was only questioning whether or not they are some of the "fastest skaters". I believe, as many who have posted, there are skaters who truly belong in this category.

#10 for Warroad can really fly.
#9 for Roseau he can move and he has great hands.
