Deflection shot
 
 Get the puck to the offensive zone near the blue line. Hold Deflection/Short 
 Block while shooting. One of your players should skate to the front 
 of the net and deflect the puck in.
 
 
 
 Easy goals
 
 If you are skating with someone that has a very high rank in the 
 Deke category such as Joe Sakic, Paul Kariya, etc., once you get 
 past the opposition's blue line, press Down, then press Auto Deke. 
 Immediately after he is done with the Deke, press Shoot. You will 
 score about 95% of the time. Also, take any big shooter and let 
 him take a slapshot directly in the middle of the hash marks. Shoot 
 for the top corner. This will work about 90% of the time. If a defender 
 is on you, once in three zone move to the left or right, then cut 
 back left or right and take you slapshot.
