How to Shoot a Great Goal
Hockey goals play a significant role in the game of hockey. Hockey goals and nets used for street hockey, roller hockey, inline hockey, floor hockey, ball hockey, and even pond hockey differ greatly. Hockey goals are usually rectangular in shape with proportionate dimensions.
The size of the hockey goals ranges from mini-goals to official 6′ x 4′ hockey goals. The International Hockey Federation clearly outlines certain specifications for the hockey goals. For example, hockey goals with wheels are not advisable. If you are right handed then you should be stick handling the puck on your right side. If you have the puck on your stick side than you can shoot, pass, make a drop pass or deke. Where to shoot?
Many times you can trick the goalie by just sliding the puck by the goalie with a quick low shot to the bottom left or right corners.
You can make a place to shoot at by making the goalie move. The goalie is trained to line up with the puck, so when you move the puck the goalie also moves. Watch the goalie. If you shoot right than you will be stick handling on your right side. When you are within 15 to 20 feet from the net fake a shot to the right side of the net (push the puck towards the goalie as if you are going to shoot it).
