I thought it was well known (and repeated) he was way low like 75 like Kessel. (7:18).

Ovi shoots puck hard

Carlson shoots even harder and I'm pretty sure he's 100 too.

Pretty sure that either Lundqvist or Broduer or both have said that Ovechkin's puck does things that others just don't. One being that the spin on it drives the puck thru goalies unlike others. The curve on his stick creates movement others don't have. Its not all about velocity

Kolzig said something similar, too.

Yea, Ive seen some of his comments. If I remember right, he said something about him after just the first day of seeing his shot.

That's right, I remember Leonsis describing the conversation in an interview.

There is a thing on youtube where Olie says that Ov was the best player he had ever played with and it was just his first practice

It was the Zoom call with a few goalies like Holtby and Murray who said his puck just doesn't go where it looks like it should. Quick said something about how quickly it gets on you. https://www.theplayerstribune.com/en-us/articles/jonathan-quick-kings-snipers

I'm just amazed at the stick bend he generates even at 100 flex. He's one big hombre though.

I don’t care what radar guns say in gimmick events, when it counts Ovy’s shot is heavy as hell and deadly accurate.
