I'm not saying getting a player who can one time the puck will solve any of our problems, but I think that somewhat speaks to the disconnect between the GM and coaches philosophy of what it takes to score goals versus the rest of the league.
Didn't Jankowski score a lot of goals on one-timers on the PP in Stockton and in Providence? Seems to me I've seen quite a few in the highlight reels.
