The only reason I shoot low is because my forward lines would get pissed at biting down on slapshots all game long if I didn't. I go low to hit the pads and get a rebound coughed up for the guys out front.
In short, get it on net and get crashing. If you get it on net nobody will care.
@TheBananaman380 he doesn't mean keep it ON the ice, he means keeping it low. its better to get some lift off of it, especially if there's a defender laying his stick on the ice or kneeling down. Try to keep it below the top of the goalie's leg pads (imagine him in a butterfly), if you're going for rebounds or about 1-2 inches off the ice if you're going for deflections
@Leclwrd If the goalie goes into a Butterfly there is more likely to be a good quality rebound other then hit his blocker when its easy to redirect where its going to go, and He says to keep it on the ice, what i find is the best to do is to shoot low blocker side. Works well for me :)
@hungbrain17 not always.. shots 10 inches off the ice are the most likely to go in, as the goalie has to go into the butterfly and has a less likely chance of stoping it.
There are a few good tips here. Shooting high is good, but goalies love to rob you when you shoot top corner, and some of them expect it. A good low shot can get you a lot of goals too!

@himynameisatticus You obviously dont play high level. Any noob can hit the corners, and any skilled goalie can block them. Remember the gloves are much quicker than pads
@hockeymatt1994 Different levels of play don't change fact buddy... If the gloves are quicker and you can still beat them, then you're better than the goalie... Be better at your job than the goalie is at his... And I really don't need to be playing at the AAA level to know what's what...
@himynameisatticus Just watch a few NHL games. Count how many times players burn goalies on the gloves. Then count how many times they beat them low.
Make your own conclusions then, but stop acting like you know shit til then. Remember, it is much harder for the goalie to get low corners than high corners
@hockeymatt1994 What's the NHL? Is that the answer you wanted? Haha, go Blackhawks by the way.. Anyway, the pros almost ALWAYS shoot high.. They might know a thing or two... But shooting low is the reason a lot of players suck in shootouts, you can deke all you want but if you don't lift the puck, the pads are gonna rob you everytime.... Kick saves are way easier for goalies than glove saves and shoulder stops...
@himynameisatticus Dude, you cannot even claim to be a hawks fan and think players need to shoot high on goalies to score in shootouts.
Watch Kane and Toews in shootouts, they always go side corners, 12 inches off the ice, or 5-hole (or deke the goalie outta his jock). And they usually score too.
Granted, the most impressive goals are high, and are usually the ones you remember. But most goals are low
@himynameisatticus thats totally opposite. its much easier to move the arms and to have better vision up top. when its low it harder to see because of other players and the kick saves means u have to make more movement and that is more difficult to occomplish than just move ur upper body or arms.
Annnndddd that's why 99% of goalies play the butterfly so they take away the bottom of the net. Goalies don't just stand in the position like the one in the video lol. He is right about rebounds though
@jimih64 Teleprompter? Memorize "lines" wow.....I'm a hockey coach not an actor. I have an idea. Step away from the keyboard and play some hockey. Best feedback here is the fact that with butterfly goalies there is room mid post above the pads. BUT in a game you want to create those scrambles that often result in goals. Alone on a goalie -- sure, shoot "low blocker" mid post....but remember highlight goals are 1/3 of the actual goals scored. Scramble, bang it in and be the hero.
I like the Canadians. I am one of the US Americans who considers hockey to be a great gift. It is the perfect game. Fun to watch and to play with the perfect blend of finesse and violence. We've got some Canadian guys down here at the rink who are terrific coaches and ambassadors of the game. Love it!
do you play hockey? if you did you would know it's not that easy it's all in the who ever makes the first move how you move and in your eyes oh and DUHHHHH
Only a horrible goalie actually goes down before you shoot. But u have a point. Im a goalie and i have leant to react not anticipate, where as a player has to anticipate not react. But it is harder to control rebounds and easy to save shots that go low. If you wanna score than put it high ha ha
Yea, but i dont think your going ot be literally standing still aswell as the goalie. He is always going ot be moving which creates more room if he is moving. then you just pick your corner a fire it.
this is sooo true i did around 3 goals with low shots and 0 with high i just think that shoot hard enough and its gonna go in low power ia the best thing in low shots
Theres only 1 thing i gotta say about your technique... When theres a return, YOU usually dont get the goal, someone else does XP Yea i know that aint rly teamwork and all but, who doesnt like to lite up the light ^^
goalies glove is too high, keep it mid range with blocker, then u can quickly pull ur hands upwards for higher shots than you can drop your hands down and keep track of the puck...
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
People like you guys are just scared to get physical, city fagets who cant take a hit. Yea i can snipe too but its more effective to crash the net get tips rebounds and lite the golie up. get the f out my way cuz im takin the puck too the net.
He never said to shoot low all the time. You gotta learn what the goalie does when he makes his saves.. This is just showing us where to shoot if he was a stand-up goalie.
I'm a shooter, not a crowding the fucking net garbage goal homosexual like yourself. Unlike you, my job one day won't be working as a cum mop at my families local gloryhole, while your mother and sister service more blackrods than you can count.
Ya failure, this guy is wrong. ROOF PUCKS on your first attempt, and don't worry about chipping in a rebound, if your uncoordinated bear league goaltenders even give those to you anymore?
Not sure what you play besides WoW, fucking gay ass failure...
lol dude chill i was just making a point that u wer wrong on that comment and when i said ur a failure am sorry then BTW buddy i dont play wow it was last year i focus on my studies and playing hockey for me is not to get anywhere in the nhl or even juniors i dont care about this kind of stuff what i like is having fun and btw am 14 so its okay if i play video games sometimes no??
It's all good. I was just trying to be annoying. Sorry for bothering you. I consider you a friend. Any friend of Hockey, is a friend of mine.
Friend.....you are not teh Failure you first appeared to be. Now you are sounding smart, and what should I say? "You're not smart!" well then I would be a liar. I can tell you're probably a good Goalie. Be careful, you're a pretty smart kid, if you try you might be in the NHL someday.
Yea i play varsity hockey and i know where the goals happen. Yes a top shelf looks good, so if its there then hit it, but most the time goaltenders dont give you much room up there. Plus you look like a dumbass when you go for high shot and miss the net. So keep it low on 1st shot especcially if som1 is there to tip it.
can someone explain to me why i should keep it low if most of the goalies im shooting at go to there. it just i have never seen a goalie stay up when i have shot top right and left they go down to there knees 75 percent of the time
If you're noticing a goalie's tendencies to go down on every shot, then fine - keep doing what works, but even if goalies are more butterfly-on-every shot nowadays, if you have a half-decent speed on your shot, shooting the puck low is STILL faster than the time it takes for the goalie to drop down...less sexy than a high shot of course but it gets the job done
OK, whatever he says, hes wrong, if u just slide the puck along the ice, the goalies butterlfly is going to stop 99 out of 100 shots. if you shoot it up, the goalie has to worry about which way you are going to go, but with on the ground, it doesnt matter which way you go, the butterfly has it. Realize this probably doesnt really work, because they didnt even show the shot...
k when this fucker played hockey the goalies had no style and fucking flung there leg high in the air to save a shot... Now a' Dayz all fucking goalies drop down in butterfly no metter where the fucking shot goes
yeah...if the goalie didn't drop AT ALL and stood still like a statue then yes what this guy is saying would be true. but as you said, most goalies drop, and those leg pads cover almost all of the bottom of the net. when a goalie drops butterfly the best option is to go high.
i play goal, and most shots i go to butterfly even if the shots high witch causes my glove and blocker to drop so tht opens a bitch load of space the the uper corners
wow delete this video anyone who actually plays hockey knows a lot more then this old fuck who played back when there were no helmets or pads for that sake
shoot about 18 inches above the ice blocker side. that is the five and a half hole. it is a really hard spot for a goalie to quickly reach because when in butterfly it is under the blocker and above the pad. great place to score, got 70 goals with it in 2 seasons.
That's clearly a lie. 70 goals in 2 seasons is pretty good. You're trying to tell me that you counted every time you scored in that spot and only those shots generated 70 goals in 2 seasons? This is obviously ridiculous.
i agree with halo, im a peewee teir 1 goalie and we played 22 season gamed and with all the tournys we finished with 64 games. and 55 is the avg games including tournys for minor hockey, so ur telling me u got pretty much 1, 2, or 3 goals a game??
what he said is true, but when you look at how much space is left for the puck to in if you don't lift it at all, there isn't that much either. if the goalie is in a butterfly, put it right above his leg. he'll have a hard time reaching especially with his stick hand at that spot.
True that man. For example, Martin St. Louis uses an older model of the Easton Synergy ST, and he's one of the best forwards in the NHL. Skill cannot be judged or justified by equipment.
I know this kid is one of those faggots you played with in peewees whose parents were loaded and always bought him the best shit even though he sucked. One of those kids that looks nasty but just blew so hard when he got on the ice.
AllNatural1625 u cant just go call people fags because there rich and for the record, Ur Equipment doesnt matter its all prefrence, and how ppl use the gear
im a goalie and personally i like it when people shoot lower than higher dont get me wrong i can stop the higher shots but i love low cus i can block and dont rebound them cus wen i butterfly i extend i dont kick wen u extend it prevents the puck rebounding to the middle it rebounds to the edge and hopefully to a defender
im a forward and personally most of the goals i score are either through the five hole or low blocker side, when you get older and goalies get bigger it becomes much harder to score top shelf and it becomes harder for goalies to shut the five hole quickly.
There is the concept of grip it and rip it. Pavelsky makes most of his shootout goals by reaction time If youre faster on the trigger than the goalie you score.
The only reason I shoot low is because my forward lines would get pissed at biting down on slapshots all game long if I didn't. I go low to hit the pads and get a rebound coughed up for the guys out front.
In short, get it on net and get crashing. If you get it on net nobody will care.

OK, whatever he says, hes wrong, if u just slide the puck along the ice, the goalies butterlfly is going to stop 99 out of 100 shots. if you shoot it up, the goalie has to worry about which way you are going to go, but with on the ground, it doesnt matter which way you go, the butterfly has it. Realize this probably doesnt really work, because they didnt even show the shot...

k when this fucker played hockey the goalies had no style and fucking flung there leg high in the air to save a shot... Now a' Dayz all fucking goalies drop down in butterfly no metter where the fucking shot goes
NHL09Montage 2 years ago
yeah...if the goalie didn't drop AT ALL and stood still like a statue then yes what this guy is saying would be true. but as you said, most goalies drop, and those leg pads cover almost all of the bottom of the net. when a goalie drops butterfly the best option is to go high.

wow delete this video anyone who actually plays hockey knows a lot more then this old fuck who played back when there were no helmets or pads for that sake

shoot about 18 inches above the ice blocker side. that is the five and a half hole. it is a really hard spot for a goalie to quickly reach because when in butterfly it is under the blocker and above the pad. great place to score, got 70 goals with it in 2 seasons.
Ketarhero 2 years ago
That's clearly a lie. 70 goals in 2 seasons is pretty good. You're trying to tell me that you counted every time you scored in that spot and only those shots generated 70 goals in 2 seasons? This is obviously ridiculous.
AllNatural1625 2 years ago
no, in 2 seasons i scored over 170 goals. but the majority was in the five and a half hole.
Ketarhero 2 years ago
No you didnt... maybe a 170 points, but not goals
halo81312936 2 years ago
okay you dont know me so back off
Ketarhero 2 years ago
i agree with halo, im a peewee teir 1 goalie and we played 22 season gamed and with all the tournys we finished with 64 games. and 55 is the avg games including tournys for minor hockey, so ur telling me u got pretty much 1, 2, or 3 goals a game??

oh ya, so obviously someone cant enjoy a sport and a video a game at one time. gee, why didnt i know that. >.>
Ketarhero 2 years ago
thats not the point, my point is, theres no way u score 1,2 or 3 goals a game
magicfreak31 2 years ago
so apparently somebody cant be a good player nowadays (and we play 70 games a season, not including tournaments).

hes saying he gets a goal everygame, i highly doubt that
magicfreak31 2 years ago
what he said is true, but when you look at how much space is left for the puck to in if you don't lift it at all, there isn't that much either. if the goalie is in a butterfly, put it right above his leg. he'll have a hard time reaching especially with his stick hand at that spot.

So people's talent is measured by their gear? Model rich boy here.

True that man. For example, Martin St. Louis uses an older model of the Easton Synergy ST, and he's one of the best forwards in the NHL. Skill cannot be judged or justified by equipment.

I know this kid is one of those faggots you played with in peewees whose parents were loaded and always bought him the best shit even though he sucked. One of those kids that looks nasty but just blew so hard when he got on the ice.

im a goalie and personally i like it when people shoot lower than higher dont get me wrong i can stop the higher shots but i love low cus i can block and dont rebound them cus wen i butterfly i extend i dont kick wen u extend it prevents the puck rebounding to the middle it rebounds to the edge and hopefully to a defender

dont you find that its harder to stop a tip or a low shot through traffic?

im a forward and personally most of the goals i score are either through the five hole or low blocker side, when you get older and goalies get bigger it becomes much harder to score top shelf and it becomes harder for goalies to shut the five hole quickly.

There is the concept of grip it and rip it. Pavelsky makes most of his shootout goals by reaction time If youre faster on the trigger than the goalie you score.
