What is the most common shot in the game and why?
Most Common Shot
The most common shot in the game often goes undeveloped because it is not as hard or as fun as a slapshot. Unfortunately, defensemen often don't work on their wristshots and are overly concerned about how hard their slapshots are. However, wristshots are more accurate and have a shorter release time which is definitely helpful when a D-man gets the puck at the point and needs to release a fast and effective shot.
