	Shot (ice hockey) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A shot in ice hockey is an attempt by a player to score a goal by striking the puck with his stick in the direction of the net.
		A count of how many shots are taken by a team is kept and this is often used as rough guide to which team is being more aggressive and dominant.
		A scoring attempt in hockey (as opposed to soccer) is officially counted as a shot only when it is directed on goal, resulting in a goal or requiring the goaltender to make a save.

		Icing occurs when the puck is shot from behind the centerline (or the defensive blue line in some amateur and European leagues) down the rink to a point beyond the opponent’s goal line, without another player touching the puck.
		Ice hockey skates are well padded with hard, molded plastic built in to protect the heel, arches, and toes.
		Ice hockey became extremely popular at northern U.S. colleges in the late 1800s, and by the beginning of the 20th century the sport had spread to Britain and other parts of Europe.

		Ice Hockey, fast-paced winter sport in which two opposing teams of skaters use long, curved sticks to try to drive a hard rubber disk into each other’s goal.
		Ice hockey is especially popular in Canada, where the modern game developed.
		Because ice hockey is a game of speed and strength, the coach must also ensure that a slower or smaller line does not play against an opponent’s faster or larger line.

		In ice hockey, a penalty shot is a type of penalty awarded when a team loses a clear scoring opportunity because of a foul committed by an opposing player.
		Penalty shots are most commonly awarded when a player is fouled from behind on a breakaway and is not able to take a shot.
		If a penalty shot is awarded and the penalized team had pulled their goaltender in favour of an extra attacker, an automatic goal is awarded in lieu of the penalty shot.

		The motion of the shot must be more explosive than the wrist shot and the wrists must be held firm - In other words you must tense the muscles in your arms so that they do not absorb any of the energy you have generated in your shot.
		This is the off-foot snap shot, whereby a player who shoots right will stand on their right leg and perform the shot from there.
		The main difference is that you are on one leg for this shot, meaning that you cannot transfer weight from one leg to another, instead you bend your knee to bring the stick back, and straighten it slightly as you explode through the shot action.

		It is rumoured to be among Paul Newman's favourites - and it certainly is one of his best comedic roles ever: George Roy Hill's Slap Shot was a sleeper hit in 1977 when it first entered theatres and it was already notorious among movie rating "executives" in the MPAA before it even made the preview.
		The "excessive amount of foul and coarse language" almost got the picture an X-rating at the time, and it was Paul Newman, who pointed out that writing the dialogue any cleaner would be a travesty of a true reflection of the sport and the people who play it.
		A much simpler plot in many ways compared to the original, Slap Shot 2 tries to re-ignite the flame but in the end is just shallow entertainment.

	Hockey Shooting Tips
		When the puck comes from the corner, if you can use the snap-shot to get a quick shot to the far side of the net (since the goalie will be hugging the opposite post), then you'll have a very good chance of scoring.
		You stand in the slot, and take the snap-shot towards the left side of the goal, as the goalie will be still covering her right side (since the puck just came from the corner).
		So often the defense take shots from the point, which leave rebounds lying in the crease area, and the forward comes in and shoots it right into the sprawling goalie's pads.
