  1. Made some important changes to the grid.

    These were fixed:

    * constant blurriness
    * Player with different colour background were cut out and pasted
    * Names are bolded and captions are non-bold
    * Messier’s name wasn’t correctly displayed, made changes to that

    Shoutout to u/[louiefriesen](/user/louiefriesen/) for suggesting Pixelmator.

    I’ll go a wildcard – Philip Larsen. Was brought in basically because of his slapshot and how it could help the PP. I think he took **maybe** two slapshots his entire tenure. His wrist shots were muffins and rarely hit the net, too

  3. BassGuy11

    Willie Mitchell had an absolute muffin of a shot. But, we all loved his long shaft.

  4. Rickcinyyc

    I’m going back in time and say Jiri Slegr. It was a helluva shot, but it went into the stands more often than it hit the net. Watching Slegr with the puck on the point was like watching Elmer Fudd with his shotgun. You had no idea what was about to happen, but it kept you glued to the screen.

  5. carry-on_replacement

    Demmer had a 0% shooting percentage

  6. DragPullCheese

    Chris Tanev,

    Honourable mention to MayRay.

  7. Loui Eriksson?

    Does nobody remember how many times Bo set Loui up for prime tap ins and he would consistently miss

  8. bimbiheid

    Steve Bernier. Can’t begin to say how many times I shouted “F@&kin Bernier”, and “please do not pass it to Bernier“.
    Jiri Slegr a close second as his shot was downright dangerous.

  9. Statistically, Chris Higgins has the lowest career shooting percentage (8.8%) of any Canucks forward.

  10. Worst shot: In terms of being worse than he should have, Mikyeyev, not for power per se, but accuracy wise. For absolute worst shot, it’s a little hard to say because there are many defensive defencemen not known for their shots in the first place…someone like Willie Mitchell or something lol.

    Best shot: Naslund. Sami Salo for slappers only

  11. Oso1marron1

    Mason Raymond, I swear he shot it right in the pads/chest for years.

    Also mikhayev

  12. Domstruk1122

    Really missed a chance to just post his forehead.

  13. Domstruk1122

    Mikael Samuesson. Don’t think his shot ever missed a shin pad.

  14. Stetcher was brutal from the point with weak shots

  15. Unpopular opinion here probably, but I’m going to have to go with Dave Babych.

    He would park himself at the top of the point on the power play etc. and almost *always* shoot when the puck came to him.

    Despite this he never cracked more than 5 goals a season as a Canuck.

    The vast majority of these shots went wide or were easily stoppable. I think I saw him score only once from there over 7 years playing for our team.

    I loved the guy otherwise, brought some grit and character and a lot of defensive energy to the game, but IMHO his shot just plain sucked.
