Engine restart speed

. Somewhat to my surprise there is a reference to an engine restart speed for a 152 and the commentator states that he hopes the pilot is trying to restart the engine.

Is there such a thing as a best speed for restarting an engine? I have read of techniques for restarting hand-propped aircraft in flight, but for anything with a starter motor does it really matter?

Would anybody here have advocated trying to restart the engine at any point for the first accident discussed?
