\u2026Hockey Goalie Trainer or Goal Scoring Coach, Part 3 Looking at goal scoring, shooting skills and hockey practicing focus, you could say that much of the focus is today on, taking rebounds in front of the goal and creating a mask, traffic or wall in front of the hockey\u00a0goalie to reduce the visibility, when the shot comes.<\/p>\n
This will be important in future, but increased training focus will need to be on shooting skills and in scoring goals, with different types of shooting techniques like:
\n– Wrist shot
\n– Snap shot
\n– Slap shot
\n– Backhand
\n– Shooting unannounced and in movement sideways
\n– To be able to shoot with the weight (centre of gravity) on both feets, left or right (the foot that is in front).<\/p>\n
\u201cIn NHL the shots will not come through if you don\u2019t shoot fast and quick\u201d \/Dave Smith, NHL officials health and wellness coach<\/p>\n
