The hardest shot speed in an NHL game through four seasons of NHL EDGE stats data was reached for the second time in three days when Buffalo Sabres forward Tage Thompson hit 104.69 miles per hour against the Detroit Red Wings on Saturday.
Thompson received a pass from defenseman Rasmus Dahlin and shot a one-timer near the left circle, which was saved by Red Wings goalie Alex Lyon. Forward Jason Zucker scored a goal on the rebound to give Buffalo a 1-0 lead.
