Pretty good for a guy who uses a flex of about 55 IIRC. It worries me that with such a whippy stick it takes more time to load up the shot, but I guess his stick is so short that it compensates. And it does seem he has a bit of skill too.

It's also why guys like Gaudreau and Phillips don't make for great penalty killers. They have so little reach for getting sticks in lanes etc.
