Do you have any idea how fast 108 miles per hour is? It's really absurd. But Zdeno Chara can hit a hockey puck that fast with four-fifths of a mph to spare, as he showed during Saturday night's Hardest Shot portion of the NHL All-Star Skills Challenge. NESN Nation's Dan Duquette is kind of blown away with this one. That's almost too fast to make something move. Regardless...

Although it was Patrick Kane of the Chicago Blackhawks that dressed as Superman during the Breakaway Challenge in the NHL All-Star Skills Competition, it was Bruins defenseman Zdeno Chara that had the real feat of strength, blasting a 108.8 mph bomb in the Hardest Shot competition, shattering his own record of 105.9 mph.

Dan Girardi leads all players by averaging 27:22 of action per game, more than two minutes above what Bruins strongman Zdeno Chara logs per appearance.
