NHL Power Rankings: Who Has The Most Powerful Slapshot in the NHL? | Bleacher Report

 

[dash]

No love for Reggie Dunlop (not even an honorable mention)

 

[puckhead]

lol... nice touch.

I don't consider Alfredsson as having a great slapshot. well, placed, but not nec. powerful. could be wrong.
Alex Edler has kept pace with Salo in the past two skills comps, fwiw.

if hitting the net wasn't a criteria, I'd throw Lobby Bohonos into the mix, too.

Heck, he couldn't even put Nieds out of the lineup with a point blank slapper...

 

[filosofy29]

Shawn Heins made it to the pro's (albeit short lived) just because of his slap shot. The guy could ratchet it up to 106mph in the AHL All-Star Game.

 

[puckhead]

if hitting the net wasn't a criteria, I'd throw Lobby Bohonos into the mix, too.

of course, Lonny Bohonos would also work.

Komisarek made the list, and he has no control over where the puck is going.

 

[ELYEAH82]

Gonchar always had a bullet from the blueline

 

[Eddie_Shack]

Lots of loose cannons on the list, but if all they are measuring is power of shot it's understandable. If I had to pick one of those guys to unload from the blue line though, it would be Weber.

 

[Forty_Sixand2]

Mike Green?

I know that Patrick Thorenson would vote for him...

Weber shot the puck clear through the net in these here past Olympic games - I'd go with him.

 

[h X c Chris]

A lot of names on that list surprise me. I dont think i've ever even seen Hossa shoot a slapper.

 

[DaBoltsNIsles]

Most of the guys on that list couldn't come close to Al Macinnis or Al Iafrate.

Iafrate was my first favorite hockey player. What a badass. He used to smoke on the bench too.

He is totally Ali Afrate as well, stupid name change....

 

[Slimpikins]

Komisarek made the list, and he has no control over where the puck is going.

I was going to say the same about Christian "high and wide" Ehrhoff.

 

[puckhead]

I was going to say the same about Christian "high and wide" Ehrhoff.

no complaints about that last year.
maybe he has reined it in a bit.

181 shot (on goal) last year put him #6 on the team, and the top defenseman.



/thanks again, btw

Shea Weber just got traded to the Sharks for Torrey Mitchell, Douglass Murray and a 1st Round pick.

I think the trade may have motivated him. While in San Jose it was just assumed that to play a rebound off of the back glass when he shot.

Great skater though. Damn it now I'm pissed again.

Just remember to return the favor, cough**Edler***cough

 

[IPostedWhat]

Most of the guys on that list couldn't come close to Al Macinnis or Al Iafrate.

Bobby Hull was said to have a slapshot that was recorded at 118.3 mph.

Highest ever recorded for a player if you believe it?
