What is a one timer in hockey?

A one-timer in hockey is a shot taken by a player who receives a pass and shoots the puck without stopping it first. This technique requires excellent timing and coordination between the passer and the shooter. The one-timer is an effective way to score a goal, especially in power-play situations, as it catches the opposing team's defense off-guard and quickly puts pressure on the goalie. Many NHL players, such as Alexander Ovechkin and Steven Stamkos, are known for their deadly one-timer shots.
