Shoot the puck harder in two weeks..

One of the deadliest weapons you could have as a player is a hard shot. No matter if you're a D-man or any type of forward (Sniper, Playmaker, Grinder), it's a crowd favorite to see someone who can really bring it. Here's a great trick I learned back in my junior high hockey days.. The wrist roller. You can buy one at your local sports stores such as Dick's or Modell's or you can make your own like the picture on the top has shown. What this does, if you look at the bottom picture, is it builds forearm muscles which are the key to a swift, firm shot. You simply roll the weight from the bottom, up and then send it slowly back down keeping tension on your forearms at all times. Repeat until failure. Give this a try in the off-season 3 times a week and you'll see a major difference come September.
