If the shot is 80 mph, that is 117 feet per second

The puck is in the net .19 seconds after the shot

Let’s discuss reaction time - the eye sees, that signal goes to the brain, the brain reacts by delivering a signal to the hands, and the hands have to react with a specific muscle reaction.

That lag is typically about 200 ms, or .2 s.

It just didn’t hit his body or glove. Yeah, he could have been positioned differently. But wasn’t poorly positioned

Well placed shot
The screen shot is just as it left Soucy's stick, not after the goal.

Reaction time being what it is, a 6'5 goalie (before skates) should not be beaten high (with room to spare in this case) over the shoulder on a clean look shot, that he has time enough to be set for (and he was).

What's the point of being 6'5 goalie if you're going to be leaving 6-8 inches in the top of the 4ft high net?
