How to Shoot Like Connor Bedard

Decent shot, not the bedard style shot

nobody can replicate the way he shoots. similar but not a replica.
same way nobody can replicate the way mackinnon skates, its just so unique.

He says using this style of shooting is useless without a defenseman in front of you. I disagree changing the angle on a goalie is just as important. That said this kind of shot was not possible 20 years ago, before the evolution of the super flex sticks. You could not get the same flex with a wooden or two-piece stick.

This is def not how bedsy shoots. Although the guy has a great shot, his form compared to bedsy is totally different. Everyone already knows that the change of angle and deception with that is key.

Bedsy punches both his arms out and when they get out far, he pulls in his top hand as hard as he can. Its like a lever, which is why he gets so much flex. His follow through is so much more different and if you studied his shot and tried to implement it in your shooting sessions, you could definitely get a somewhat dollar tree version of a bedsy shot.

Don’t like all these hype about bedard shot etc I think there are many player with decent shot so just shoot whatever comfortable you feel with I think

Coach Mike showing us the way! What a beast!!

Bedard also has his backhand facing up through his follow through
