need some NHL 10 scoring tips, I suck lol

k...so I haven't played much NHL since 08....and I just got NHL 10 today and is my first time playing hockey on a PS3.....what is the best way to score?...slapshots....wristers...one timers? I just lost 2-1 to the Kings on rookie lol,so I need help

Lol it's not that you suck, it's just that the Kings are better than you.

NHL 10 spread out the scoring a lot, you can score some pretty realistic goals actually. I don't know about a best way to score, but on rookie you can always one-time the puck, or take a slapshot on the rush with an opposing defender screening the goalie. Try working the puck around a little bit and you'll get the hang of it.

Break in on the right wing, take a shot at the goalie's right pad (looks left to you) once you enter the zone; depending on the goalie, you'll usually get a juicy rebound for your LW.

thanks guys....I will try those tips out

If you are a forward, put everything into wrist shot. You won't have time and space online to unleash a big slapper. If you are D, then put it all into slap shot. Power in my opinion is more useful than accuracy, as if the goalie gets a piece of it, it could still flip in. I usually stop adding to my accuracy out in the low 80s. Then everything goes into power. Also, if you are a D, pick the curve that sticks it to the ice. That makes it easier for your forwards to deflect.

Just shoot the puck past the goalie, into the net, and that makes a goal

lol

thanks sir.....that tip worked really well

Sad thing is, that is a deep comment than John Madden and Pierre Mcguire combined.

I dunno, but NHL 10 is again too easy to beat... Sure it's clearly harder than before, but I've made the game as difficult as I can, and 68 wins in a season doesn't quite count as difficult... Not too many crazy blow out games though. most around 4-0, 4-1...

Ok Jason, give me my scoring ability back. I'm in a real slump now.

haha you should have it......I have not played since Monday I think....waiting for a roster update to start a chise!!!

Puberty?

For all those that are in the EASHL on PS3, what are your club names? It would be sweet to play against each other. Mine's LGK (LetsGoKings).
