Jonathan Drouin - 86, LW, PLY

Drouin's card is the cheapest of the bunch, and does not bring anything exceptional aside from the speed, but he will help your teams playmaking with synergies.

The 28-year-old won the competition in 2015.

Andy McDonald - 87, LW, PLY

A solid playmaking card with a weak shot, McDonald can help your teams puck skills and has good faceoff stats despite being listed as a winger.

McDonald won the fastest skater in 2007.

Dylan Larkin - 88, C, PLY

This card is tied with Larkin's highest of the year and is a solid all around player.

Larkin has the record in the fastest skater, posting a time of 13.172 in 2016.

Bill Guerin - 90, RW, PWF

This card is already highly sought after, with no card going for cheaper than 450,000 coins in the auction house.

It is extremely rare to find a power forward who can skate like this in HUT, Guerin's physical skills and speed make him a must-have player.

Guerin won the 2001 fastest skater.

Mike Gartner - 90, RW, SNP

Gartner has become a HUT staple, appearing every year as a speedy card with a deadly shot and this one is no different.

A three-time fastest skater champion, Gartner won the competition in 1990, 1993, and 1996.
