Let’s make something clear: Jesperi Kotkaniemi is not exactly a goal-scorer. At least, he hasn’t shown that special touch in his early career, be it in Finland, in international tournaments in his draft year, or in his first seasons with Montreal. But his release gives him a tool with which to build his goal-scoring game.
After all, when asked which shot impressed him the most in training camp, Jake Allen pointed to Kotkaniemi’s. And for good reason. The Finnish centreman probably tweaked it in the off-season. Or maybe it is just the effect of his strength training, the increased flexibility, the stability, the muscle mass gained — all things that help a player speed up his release, flex his stick, utilize his weight, and fire from better, more powerful puck positions.
