Tkachuk's second snipe in the VGK game was very similar to the goal he scored against CHI except in VGK he went short side and far corner in CHI. Two amazing shots, off the drag and release. Amazing skill (although one may have gone off a shin pad but still).

I would like to see Bennett get off that shot with more regularity, use the defender as a screen and rip it. He's got to get more shots off clean - well more shots off period. It would be great to see him routinely putting 4-5 shots on net a game. If he can make defenders think about whether he's going to drive it hard to the net or shoot it, I think it will give him some time and space.
