How to shoot like Connor Bedard

He's such a nice guy bro.

I know no one will see this, but I simply watched this video and applied it as best I can in warmup today. I was clocking consistent lightning fast shots top corners! This video literally changed me as a hockey player, my shot went from a normal shot to a deadly weapon and from the bottom of my hearth, thank you!

The generosity of these break downs… its appreciated

3:18 what i find especially amazing is how Bedard doesnt even need to step into the shot and its still potent.

2:25 Coach Chippy sighting!

Coach Jeremy, thanks for a great breakdown and explanation of this shot. Applied your three steps during stick-and-puck time at my local rink, and was amazed by how efficiently it loads energy into the stick shaft and the quickness of puck release. New trick for this old dog (62)! Rick

I learned to load the stick about 15 + years ago as an adult player. I basically saw the technique at clinics given by former division 1 college players. I would practice it at sticktime sessions. Take a bucket of pucks and dump it out on a face off circle and shoot, shoot, shoot. Or just shoot against the boards. Bottom line, you kind of have to work it out on your own. Plenty of failure before I had it down. Long story short, if you learn to do it right, your wrist/snap shot can be a rocket! Oh, use a stick with a flex you can load. I like around 80 flex (before I cut it down). It really changed the way I played. No more need for clappers. This technique allows quick release and plenty of speed.

one thing is clear, he's been eating a lot of protein and working hard in the gym, that's for sure.

i live in Arkansas so its hard to get good sticks down here i tried this shot with my classic wood stick since its my best one and broke it. still a really good video

very nice breakdown of Bedar's wrist shot, much appreciated!

great video - i'm curious about how stick length also plays into changing your angle

Precious moment to share thanks!

Amazing how much the game has changed since I was in high school. I was taught a completely different way to shoot than what’s being taught now. Now I’m older and adjusting.

Hey Jeremy, amazing video! Finally after I long time I feel like I should learn something new. I have a feeling that this technique might become the new "standard" in pro hockey. I think that kids will be taught to shoot like this instead of classic snap shots

Great video. Thank you for sharing your access to an incredible player. Also good to know it takes everyone time to relearn.

Great analysis, I appreciate the breakdown and all the details regarding the mechanics!

Awesome video, can’t wait for October!

This is the exact type of video I was looking for thanks

I'd love to see Bedard and Matthews shoot with my 90's Gretzky aluminum. 😊

This video is great. I watched the short form version you published a few weeks ago on Instagram maybe 100 times trying to derive exactly what you discuss in this video!
