COLUMBUS, Ohio - Shea Weber shot faster missing the net than any other player did hitting it. When he hit the net, it was even better.The Nashville Predators captain won the Hardest Shot competition at Saturday nights all-star skills competition by clocking in at 108.5 mph. Weber was just short of the record of 108.8 mph set by the Boston Bruins Zdeno Chara at the last all-star weekend in 2012 in Ottawa.You never really know how hard it is until it registers, Weber said. Its different, too. In a game you dont really see that. Guys dont skate right into a puck and take a slap shot. Guys are one-timers or standing still and taking it in different situations.In game situations, players would have to get in the way of that kind of shot.Everybody cringed, said all-star captain Nick Foligno of the host Columbus Blue Jackets, whose team beat Jonathan Toewss 25-19 to win the skills competition. Wouldnt ever want to have to block that.Webers 101.8 mph blast that missed the net and didnt count was better than anyone elses best attempt. Washington Capitals star Alex Ovechkin shot 101.4 twice, while Dustin Byfuglien of the Winnipeg Jets topped out at 97.3.Without Chara in the competition, Weber was the favourite going in. But he considers Chara the king.Hes the guy to beat all the time, hes got the big shot, Weber said. Honestly I was nervous because theres some guys out there that can rip it.Webers previous best was around 106 mph. Hes not sure if hell ever beat Charas record but thinks its possible.I just want to keep getting better every year, Weber said. I think as kids we strive to get better at everything we do. Its no different now. You dont want to get worse. You want to continually get better.Fastest skater: After being traded for him at Fridays all-star draft, Phil Kessel beat Tyler Seguin in their head-to-head heat.

Kessel said.Rookie Jonathan Drouin of the Tampa Bay Lightning had the fastest time at 13.103 seconds. Sportvisions player tracking technology was used as part of the competition, as it will in Sundays game.Breakaway challenge: Ryan Johansen stole the show by bringing out 7-year-old Cole Vogt, son of Columbus Blue Jackets trainer Mike Vogt, to help him score and by getting teammates to do the Flying V from the Mighty Ducks movies. Jakub Voracek of the Philadelphia Flyers followed that by bringing out 21-year-old Johnny Gaudreau of the Calgary Flames to help him.I think that little kid was bigger than him. Lets be honest, Voracek said of Gaudreau. That was the plan. It was funny.Gaudreau, who wanted to light his stick on fire for the event because he plays for the Flames, was added to the all-star game as an injury replacement. Tyler Johnson of the Tampa Bay Lightning missed the skills competition with a lower-body injury, and will likely be out for Sundays game.Johansen won the breakaway challenge as a result of an online fan vote.Accuracy shooting: Blackhawks winger Patrick Kane needed just five shots to hit all four targets.

Nash asked for a trade out of Columbus and is tied for the NHL lead in goals for the Rangers.Thats how its been for the last three years, so I expected it, Nash said. In one ear and out the other.

Ryan was selected by Anaheim with the second overall pick of the 2005 NHL Entry Draft and became a highly-productive member of the franchise before being traded to Ottawa over the summer. Ryan could be facing an icy reception from Ducks fans on Sunday, but the talented winger appears to be taking it all in stride. "Im not sure," Ryan told the Senators official web site when asked what to expect on Sunday. "Itll be an emotional day. I spent six years there. Lot of friends and family in the area, so itll be an emotional day. But, hopefully, Ill be well received. Who knows?" The 26-year-old Ryan, who scored 30 or more goals four times during his time with the Ducks, was acquired on July 5 by the Senators for forwards Jakob Silfverberg, Stefan Noesen and a first-round pick in the 2014 NHL Entry Draft. Ryan has two goals and two assists in his first four games with Ottawa. Silfverberg, meanwhile, already has four goals and an assist in four games with the Ducks. In fact, the 22-year-old winger is coming off a big game for Anaheim, as he scored twice to help lead the Ducks to Thursdays 6-0 rout of the visiting New York Rangers. "He just goes out and plays," Ducks head coach Bruce Boudreau said of Silfverberg. "Hes a quiet guy and he does what he does. Hes a good enough player that he has some success." Daniel Winnik and Dustin Penner each posted a goal and an assist on Thursday, while Saku Kooivu and Ryan Getzlaf scored for the Ducks, who were playing their first home game of the season and have won three straight since losing to Colorado to start the year.dddddddddddd Jonas Hiller stopped 34 shots for his first shutout of the season in Thursdays win, which kicked off a five-game road trip. The Ducks enter Sunday facing a rash of injuries, as forwards Nick Bonino, Kyle Palmieri, Dustin Penner and Mathieu Perreault are all questionable for tonights game with various ailments. Anaheim has won two straight and five of its last six meetings against the Senators, who have dropped two of their last three games at the Honda Center. Ottawa is opening the season on a six-game road trip and has lost three straight after beginning the swing with a 1-0 victory in Buffalo. The Sens were in action Saturday in San Jose and dropped a 3-2 decision to the Sharks. Brent Burns buried the game-winner 7:08 into the third period, as San Jose handed Ottawa its first regulation loss of the season. Ryan and Zack Smith notched a goal apiece for the Senators, who received 47 saves from Robin Lehner in the loss. "Robin played real good," Senators coach Paul MacLean said. "We just cant continue to take penalties, especially the undisciplined kind, the ones we are taking. You cant expect the goalie to keep killing them off." Senators No. 1 goaltender Craig Anderson expects to get the start on Sunday. He has not fared well against Anaheim in his career, posting a 2-6-0 record and a 3.34 goals against average in eight games versus the Ducks. ' ' '
