How to Shoot Like Patrik Laine
You might have guessed it, but this shot cannot be taught. It can only be understood.
The Drone Coaches do not tell you to shoot this way. They give you other “advice”.
If you’re ready to unlock your shot and accept your destiny as a hockey wizard, then it’s time to check out…

how do you load the top hand
Dumbest video on YouTube
The 4th step is applying the 3 steps over and over until you don't have to think about them anymore. (Practice) I've dented 2 garage doors to shit over 15 years and I can say my shot is like this in terms of fluidity and heaviness. Been told by coaches, goalies I've played against/ with, and a former AHL player. I broke a goalies hand when he stopped a snapshot with his blocker. Obviously I don't have the pinpoint accuracy that the pros do, nor am I in the shape these guys are, but a shot is only perfected through countless repetition. Oddly enough playing tennis helped me to find fluidity in my shot, as the "weight transfer" is very similar and demands controlled explosiveness with the same rotation.
Lotta people hating here but I'll vouch for this. Haven't actually seen the '4th step' in question but I'm pretty sure I know what it is from hours of playing. I agree 100% that this style of shooting is distinctly different from how everyone's been taught to shoot and you immediately notice the difference when you get the muscle memory down. Honestly it's just pretty basic physics, not sure why coaches haven't picked this up sooner. Good vid nonetheless
can you do a video on how crosby shoots?
Pleeeaaassssseeeee do a Brent Burns shot breakdown
part of the reason why his hand is so low to his body is the low flex he uses. Many other players who use much stiffer sticks are forced to keep there hands in front of their bodies to flex the stick. Laine on the other hand doesn't need much force to flex his.
instead of laines shot look at brett hulls- https://youtu.be/O1Y26D7porM
I'm guessing technique is mostly to do with posture and frame, my shoulders are really rounded out forward, bad posture so I shoot almost the same way because it's uncomfortable otherwise due to the limitations of my posture, that's why most coaches advice will work for others. I bet money this guy's shoulders sit really forward like mine.
Don't think too much just trust your stick and bend it. buy softer stick than before so you get the release.. its not rocket science..
Song?
I signed up and tried the fourth step on the ice today. It is legit. To be honest his site has way better stuff on it than just this fourth step I wish I found it 17 years ago! If you are thinking about signing up I suggest you do.
#1- u can't shoot w/out transferring ur weight, the way u transfer it differs player 2 player but weight transfer is essential… #2- u create torque by pushing ur weight down on ur stick towards the ice… #3- quickness & acceleration of releasing that torque either w/ ur hips(Laine) or upper body(Kessel) after steps 1 & 2 will create a helleva shot!!! I don't know what secrets ur selling but I'll tell u it ain't worth paying u 2 find out!!!
Watching videos like this is guna fuck up a bunch of rookie players even more.
There is a weight transfer in the slap shot but it’s straight down onto the stick. He drops his right leg bringing all his weight down to torque up the stick. His weight is centered over the shaft driving it down.
last tip: Laine shoots where the stick starts to curve and lines it up with where he wants too shoot, that's why most NHL Sniper's have open toe curves
Youre a fucking dumbass
FUCK this stupid manupulative bullshit video. You sound like a snake oil salesman man. Trying to allude to a "fourth" and secret element of Laine's shooting mechanics… Your first three points were garbage so I'm not holding my breath on #4. If you are a rec player you will probably never shoot like Patrik Laine, listen to your coaches for shooting advice.
ur a dick
Fuck this video
Thanks the hip rotation helped
Miss my old Easton aluminum sticks from my atom days 🙂 sticks have evolved so much, comp sticks create so much torque.
Most important step is practice, practice, practice.
Nobody can shoot like laine
4th… ELBOW up…
like kessel and laine here, you can practice these specifc shot "fundementals" but like you said, some people are just born with great technique. he's probably just been shooting this way since he was a kid.
As of right now, idk if I wanna shoot like this guy based on his point totals lol
This is hard to watch and listen to. You are comparing Kessel shooting off his right foot and Laine off his left. They are both righties so this means those are two completely different shots.
Also please explain how a player can "load" with his top hand. Makes no sense this entire video is gibberish
What would be a good way to start teaching a mite or squirt so when they actually get stronger this will come natural ??
This aged well, eh?. Loving the fourth secret btw…and the whole membership. Darryl Belfry is a God too. 😂
Thank you tips your points have really helped my shot power
Is amazing I like this sport I not play
The 4th secret is “not gonna be fucking suck this year”
Last trick is to…
play lots of fortnite.
What flex are guys like Laine and Pettersson using? Yes we need to flex the stick, but is it a 70 flex stick that he's flexing a ton, or is it actually a 95 flex that he is able to flex using his wizard technique?
btw the link is broken.
Hurts my wrist to try to shoot like that. Any advice?
Why would we wanna do that?
