Thanks for your advice. I will try them.
As a matter of fact, I scored on a slap shot tonight!
I had another slap shot before, but missed the net by 6 inches on the right. Both times, my legs gave up because I was tired and was slightly out of balance, and I had the right knee on the floor. It surely looks good for the style. I almost got another goal when I was at 7 feet from the front of the net, hit the ball in the air. The ball was boucing toward the empty net, going, going, going, for what seemed an eternity and out of the blue a player came out, felt on the floor, grabbed the ball in the air, pushed it to the goalie's side who kept it under him. I often have dreams like that when I come soooo close from getting a goal. Tonight that dream turned into reality!
