Positioning, stick selection and curve selection are the 3 more easily modified variables for shooting the puck. Then there's SS accuracy and WS accuracy. If you have a lot of power, then low percentage glove shots can be a valid option since the odds of your shot being able to beat the goaltender go up, or even then, since it is such a hot shot, the puck will trickle around to the other side, or someone else will get the rebound.

Also, goalies will over commit, so if you have time to go across the goal crease and get the goalie to follow you, a quick reversal of the left stick and shooting at the same time will result in those seam goals that go in.
