This shot directly involves two players: one passes it and the other slaps the puck while it is in motion. The main advantage of this shot is the relatively quick release; even though the player is winding up, he does so before the puck arrives. The shot also can also come close to the speed of a regular slapshot, making it difficult to stop. These factors and the rapid change of direction that occurs when executing a one-timer can wreak havoc on an opposing goal tender. The goalie's only solace is that these shots are rare--this may have to do with the special conditions that one-timers require.

Have you ever noticed, in Hockey, when a player receives the puck from another player, teammate or otherwise, the first thing he or she generally does is to stop and gain control of the puck before continuing. Sometimes a player must get rid of the puck very quickly before stopping it and gaining total control, normally when taking a shot on the opposing netminder with the hopes of catching the netminder by surprise. When this is done, it is referred to as "taking a one-timer".

Would just add that it does not have to be a pass from another player. You can also one time the puck on a rebound or any time the puck is lieing around.
The pass one timer is just the one most people think of when it comes to one timers.

A player shooting a moving puck without first having possession of it. It can be from a pass, a clearing attempt, a loose battle, anything so long as the puck is in motion and the player shooting it did not have control of it prior to his release.

It's when one player passes to another and the receiver of the pass hits it directly off the pass for a shot without actually having control of the puck

When a player line up a shot for you, like this guy coming from the left and passing to the right and the guy on the right takes a shot and what ever happens is what it is, it should confuse the goalie.

A player passes to another player in a scoring position and he shoots the puck without stoping the pass first. Often a cross ice pass meant to get by the goalie before he can get in posistion for the save.
