Hints
Eliminate Opposition’s Goalie:
Press Start to pause the game, select “Controller Setup”, then choose the
opposing team. After entering the team’s menu, change the goalie status
to “Pull”, then press Start. Wait a moment, then press Start and return
to the control selection screen. Move back to your original team and press
Start. After entering your menu press Start and the opposing goalie will
be gone.
Shorter Penalties:
When in a fight, let the opposing player punch you without fighting back.
Your opponent will get a five minute penalty, while your penalty will only
be two minutes.
Make a Big Hitter a Big Shooter As Well As a BH:
During gameplay, select the big hitter. Pause the game, change controller
to opposing team. Pull their goalie. Then, change back to your original
team. With the goalie gone, shoot the puck to make a goal. Do this about
3 or 4 times. Then in the next game, the big hitter will have a hammer an
a stick next to his name!
Drain the Opposing Team’s Line:
During gameplay, pause the game, then change your controller to the opposing
teams side. When you have done this, go back to the menu. Select the team’s
options. Choose “Edit Lines” menu, and then switch out their good players
for 3 bad players. Put the same 3 people on ALL the lines. After you have
done this, change back to your team, and play the game. During the game,
all of the opposing team’s lines will be fatiuged. They will then play sluggishly!
Easy Goals:
To score on every shot simply gain control of the puck, skate to the dots
on your blue line and fire a shot, not a slapshot though. You have to be
almost on the dot for it to work correctly.
Play As Any Current NHL Star:
Create a player and enter their First and Last name as they appear in the
game and It will ask you “do you want to create a character like this one
already in the registry?” Just hit yes this works with EVERY Current NHL
player, then just change whatever you want except for the “Skater type”
and your new character will look like and have a photo exactly like the
one you’ve modeled him after!!
Creat Super Players:
During the season you can create a bunch of super players (i.e. use peter
forsberg as a name) then trade them to a team for one player (because the
computer teams want half your team to get anyone) and then go back and delete
the created super players who are now on the other teams roster, so you
get a player for free.
Trading:
Also for trading you can stack your team by trading someone who’s say a
70, and keep going through the list of computer teams until you find a team
that will take your 70, for a player who is a 72, then do the same to trade
that 72 for a 74, and so on. Eventually by doing this you can trade “up”
until you’ve gotten a whole team of players who are 85-95.
Score Easy Goals:
To score easy goals, when your momentum is up and you have a faceoff at
center ice, pass the puck back to the right defenseman, have him pass straight
to the right wing, skate the right wing straight along the boards, then
when you get to about the next faceoff circle, pass across to the left wing
(on manual shoot) and this scores most of the time…if you do it right
you can score 4 or 5 goals in under a minute.
Get Almost Every Player In a Trade:
To get almost any player in a trade, go to the Create-a-Player option and
select it. Then type in the name of the player you want to trade for. Then
an option will come up that tells you that there is a player with the same
name in our database would you like to create a player like him? Select
yes and assign him to the team you want. Then trade the created player for
the real player and most of the time it will work. Then you delete the created
player and the real player will be on your team.
Easy Trades:
To get any one that you want in a trade even if its Jagr for German Titov
all you have to do is when u start a new season go down to CPU trading and
change it to no. Now the computer teams will not reject a trade ever.
