Guy Lafleur had a great slapshot and used it frequently.My question is, how many wingers in history had a better slapshot than him? Can you name them?
By slapshot I don't mean only power, but overall: power, accuracy, ability to trigger it in various situations, etc.
Some candidates to start: Geoffrion, Bobby and Brett Hull, Ovechkin.Possibly Kovalchuk.
There are guys like Richer and LeClair, but I doubt they had a better slapshot than Lafleur, even if it might have been more powerful.
Thoughts?
