Team Staal's Zdeno Chara, of the Boston Bruins (33) hits a record shot of 105.9 MPH during the Hardest Shot event at the NHL All Star Skills Hockey competition on Saturday, Jan., 29, 2011, in Raleigh, N.C. (AP Photo/Gerry Broome)

105.9 - The hardest shot on ever during the NHL All-Star Skills competition, which was recorded by Zdeno Chara during last year's event.

Chara has also won four consecutive hardest shot competitions, so he would be going for number five overall should he designated himself as a shooter. Currently, Big Z is three behind Al MacInnis (7) for the most all-time hardest shot victories.

Al MacInnis owns:

Hardest ~~Skullet~~ Shot Previous record: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a0XT81S1AKg

And Al beating the hell out of the puck: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VaDdTrNhsQc
The one at like 0:20 is probably my favorite in that video. Or the one where he breaks a goalie’s hand. Unreal.

And there’s this odd one that’s analysis of the shot but there’s no sound and it’s only like 15 seconds: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eX1RMlBUEJI

so is the first

what we’ve learned today is that I can’t handle 2 ALs that both shoot the puck real hard.

Thankfully, there is only one Zdeno.
