Pomminville's shot

[chernobylwraiths]

How good is Pomminville's shot? (just for Thurm)

[THATHURMANATOR]

I think the Zhitnick option is a perfect one!! He has a hard shot but rarely hits the net from the point on the PP. Never thought of that comparison before until now

The typical Pominville game:
Skate down the boards - Take a 35mph slapshot right into the goalies chest.
Skate around the end boards and chew on your mouth guard.
Skate down the boards - Take a 35mph slapshot right into the goalies glove.
Skate around the end boards and chew on your mouth guard.
Skate down the boards - Take a 35mph slapshot right into the goalies chest.
Skate around the end boards and chew on your mouth guard.
Skate down the boards - Take a 35mph slapshot right into the goalies..... "oh wait he missed it. It's a goal!"
Lather, rinse, repeat.

That is way too accurate for Pomminville.

It's about accuracy. If he can hit the net, he can make a difference but odds are.. he'll miss it 79% of the time.

always sprints down side of the ice and takes a slap shot at the high circle.

He seems to be less stable on his skates, he constantly is flopping around, even on his goal against toronto, he went down.

And i hate that his pants look like a gigantic diaper on him. although, it says volumes about his game.

OK, Pommer is not close to Ovie and Stamkos and Crosby, but those guys go down after shooting as well.

I don't know how hard his shot is, but it certainly isn't accurate.

And if it's not accurate, does it really matter if it's going 20 mph or 120 mph? He's not getting it in the goal either way.

I think you missed one....
Get the occasional shot wide open in the slot and miss the net and hits the glass nicely.

Cody McCormick has a higher shooting percentage than Pominville. Sadly, they're still among the team's leaders.

Here's the thing about Pominville: Briere made him. His only big years as a goal scorer were on Briere's line.

[DrGraves]
