How Blues rookie Jimmy Snuggerud developed his 'second to none' shot: 'Shoot as hard as you can'

ST. LOUIS — St. Louis Blues rookie Jimmy Snuggerud’s shot is “second to none,” in the words of linemate Dylan Holloway. “You don’t really see guys coming into the league and beat goalies like he does.”Goalie Jordan Binnington described it as a “new-age, quick-twitch shot.”Snuggerud, a 21-year-old right winger, has had his slap shot clocked at 95-plus miles per hour this season. But it’s not just his slapper that’s beating goalies. He’s scoring with wrist shots, snap shots and even by batting pucks out of midair.Advertisement
