Usually try and go 5-hole. If it's any form of hockey that's not on ice, I almost exclusively go 5. As a goalie myself, I just know how much ridiculously harder 5-hole saves are to make when you're in shoes and can't slide around on concrete or gym floors.

When was the last time a goalie was on a breakaway?

If I'm a skater I'd likely miss the net. I'd mid-low blocker just over the pads though.

Tied Jussi Jokinen's league record actually.

Hard low shot is the best bet though. 18-36 inches off the ice

Flip shot over the goalie's head, off the crossbar and down on the line, then slide into the goalie.

I always liked to come from one side to another and to get em stretching and roof it.

I like your style.

I took a slapper on a shootout once and it worked five hole

I'm a right handed shot so I love coming down the left wing and cutting hard right and just shoving it in or roofing it.

Doesn't it depend on what the goalie's doing? I'm not any good but I default to 5 hole if I'm not seeing anything, at least then you never know what happens with the rebound, but I'm a righty so high near side is usually top glove, if I'm shooting for a corner it's probably that one.

I like going for the post and in. I like giving good feeds to someone more than shooting, but if I have a good decent one timer or have a good shot, I usually shelf it.

High blocker if he is back in his net. Forehand backhand deke if he is out.

My favorite is to shoot a laser high glove side. Sometimes I'll switch it up and fake shot, then go backhand over the goalies pad and/or stick.

My highest success rate is shooting low stick side, but it isn't as fun.

Most often I do hit him right in the chest. Sometimes I'm lucky and squeeze it through his armpit.

The one goalie I play against will often give up goals on my weakest shot. I'll go backhand over his stick side. I think I can skate faster than my backhand, but he lets them in if I hit the net at least 2/3 of the time.

My most memorable breakaway was trying to slip my stick between my legs to shoot. I wound up tripping/corkscrewing myself, and taking out the goalie and net. One guy said I was like a helicopter blade flying in the air towards the goalie. The goalie suggested that I shouldn't try that move again... I did the next week and he froze and it slid on the ice past him. It was all strategic planning.
