Not sure if its due to injury or possibly just doubting himself a bit? I really can't say why its happening, but the old Sean Monahan had the puck in the back of the net milliseconds after hitting his stick. He has a great release but if you give the goalie that extra fraction of a second, chance to convert (obviously) goes way down.
A good coach should be able to correct this in his star player.....if only we had a good coach.

Why would a professional, millionaire player need a coach to tell him to shoot the puck a bit quicker? Is there no accountability to the player to improve things himself?
