Shooting in hockey is one of the most important skills you can learn. You can't score if you can't shoot. No matter what type of shot you are practicing always aim and always shoot as hard as you can. Develop a quick release and get your shots off as fast as possible. Learn these five types of shots and you are well your way to becoming the next Sydney Crosby:
Wrist Shot: The most important shot in your arsenal is the wrist shot. Start with the puck close to the heel of the stick and the blade of the stick on the ice behind your back foot. As you bring the stick forward, keep the blade on the ice and allow your weight to transfer from the back to the front foot and the puck to move from the heel to the toe of the stick. Quickly reverse your wrists and follow through to the target. The lower the follow through, the lower the shot and the higher the follow through, the higher the shot. Remember, practice makes perfect.
Slap Shot: Mostly used by defensemen beagel

Bend your knees to get low and hold the stick with your bottom hand lower than usual. Lean into the shot and hit the ice an inch or so behind the puck (this will flex the stick giving more energy release at impact). keep your eyes on your target throughout and follow through with the stick kept low.
One Timer: One of the deadliest shots in hockey is the one timer. This is when you meet a pass with an immediate slap shot with no attempt to gain control of the puck. This requires great hand-eye coordination and precise timing. Because of the angle change from passer to shooter and an immediate change in direction and speed of the puck, the one timer greatly increases the chance of a goal.
Backhand: When taking a backhand shot keep the puck in the centre of the blade of your stick with the blade slightly cupping the puck. Pull the puck from the front to the back in one swift, smooth motion. Transfer your weight in the direction of the shot and lift the puck off the ice, push it toward the net and snap your wrists for more power. Roll your hands over to aim the shot and finish with the blade of the stick pointing in the direction of the shot.
Snap Shot: The snap shot is most effective when in close to the net. It is like the wrist shot's version of the slap shot's one timer. Simply a quick reverse of the wrists with no wind-up at all. Aim and follow through to the target (open side of the net). Very effective off either foot. Practice with a partner passing to you from the corner to the front of the net.
Whether taking a wrist shot, backhand, slap shot, one timer or a snap shot, keep your head up. You need to see the openings and aim your shot. Keeping your head up when shooting requires confidence which can only be gained with practice. Pick your spots when shooting in hockey, aim and follow through.
