Discovering codes
-----------------
While playing the game, when you get a goal you will see short FMV 
sequence afterwards. In one clip, you can see the player go over 
to the side of the rink and see the crowd. At the top you will see 
some people holding and flipping signs. Look at them closely and you 
will notice that they form codes, such as "N N N Down." 
Press Square, Triangle, and Circle followed by the D-pad direction 
at the vs. screen to activate the code.

Easy store credits
------------------
Play a game with the difficulty starting at the rookie setting. 
Before the game ends and displays your total stats, enter the pause 
menu and change the difficulty to All-Star. 
You will now get All-Star credits which can be used to buy things. 

Win the Midway Cup in franchise mode to unlock 5,000 extra credits 
for use in the hockey shop.

Use the following trick to unlock everything as fast as possible 
with the least amount of work. To get 200 very easy credits without 
having to slave away on All-star mode, begin the game on the All-Star 
difficulty setting. Then, after the first face-off, go into your 
game settings and change the difficulty setting to Rookie. This 
will make the game much easier to play. When the clock is winding 
down in a period, make sure you change the difficulty back to 
All-Star before the period ends. The CPU will think that you played 
the whole period under the All-Star difficulty setting. 
Pepeat this for all three periods and you will end the game with 
200 credits if you won. 

For easy one player credits, select "Custom Team", start a team, but 
take all the attributes away from every person. Exit and save, 
then enter exhibition mode and play that team. 

Easy attributes points
----------------------
Go to franchise mode and win a game to get 6 attribute points.

Easy goals
----------
When creating a team, make one player left handed. When picking your 
hot spot, make it on the right faceoff circle. When playing a game 
enable the "Show the team's hot spot" code, put the left-handed player 
as your defense, win the faceoff, and get it to your defender. 
Skate up and shoot from where the hot spot is located. 
You will make it in 9 out of 10 times. 

Go around your opponent's net and pass the puck to the player that is 
on the other side of the net. Pass it to him, and shoot immediately. 
The goalie will not be on that side, so it is easier to score.

When on one side of the net, cross over to the other side. When you reach 
the other post, shoot a slapshot or a normal shot.

When choosing your players do not worry if their shooting or passing is 
good. Choose someone who has high checking. Then, have your player skate 
up ice and check the goalie down. Whoever has the puck will have a wide 
open net to score on. 

When you and a friend are playing against the CPU, have your friend check 
the goalie down. The goalie will fall down and you can score easilly. 
This is useful in franchise and Stanley Cup playoff modes. 

When you have the puck, go all the way left and keep passing. Once next 
to the goal, pass then shoot fast. Sooner or later you will get a goal. 
This works best when the "Unlimited turbo" code is enabled. 

Go down the side of the rink and get behind the net. 
Then skate front of it and shoot. You can also go down the rink between 
the middle and side of it as fast as you possible and completely stop 
slightly after the blue line. You can do this by pressing the Analog-stick 
Back, then turn towards the goal and shoot. 

Easy wins
---------
Stats or attributes do not make a big difference in your game. 
The way you play will affect your game. Remember what happens during game 
play (for example, when you have the puck and get checked down and your 
opponent scores). Never make the same mistake again in your game or you 
will most likely lose. Always keep the puck moving. While you pass the 
puck around in the defending zone, the opponents goalie gets tired so you 
have a better chance of scoring. A good location to put your hot spot 
(creating a team) is directly on the blue line dead center with the 
opposing net.

Easy credits
------------
This trick requires at least two controllers. Put one player on one team 
and player two on the other. Set the period length to three minutes and 
start a game. Only use one of the controllers and let the player to remain 
idle. You can score and get lots of points fast and easy. 
The two remaining men not controlled directly by the other player will 
still check you and take the puck, but will not be able to score. You will 
also get two chances at the trivia question. If you get the question correct, 
both players will get the trivia points. Note: For each difficulty setting 
you will get a different amount of points: 100 for Rookie and 200 for 
All-Star. 

Easy Level 3 Power Shot
-----------------------
When the "Code Input" screen appears for Skillz challenge, enter the 
"Bulldozer Puck" (2-1-2 Left) code. This will make the boxes take 
less hits, so it will be easier. 

Easy fights
-----------
When playing the game with a friend, check the CPU player and not the one 
that your friend is controlling. This may get you into a fight.

Finishing move during fights
----------------------------
While fighting a bar is displayed, showing how much life you have. 
When your opponent's bar is almost empty, press Circle to do a wrestling-
type move to finish the fight. If you have enough money, buy different 
heads. When you press Circle with one of the heads equipped, it will 
do a special move. For example, the shark head will bite the opponent 
and alien head will zap him. 

Stall for time with fights
--------------------------
If you are ahead of a team that cannot afford to lose to, stay by your 
goal or a distance behind the blue line and keep pressing Deke whenever 
the player guarding you comes at you. This basically starts a fight, and 
eats up time that the other team could use to score on you. Not only will 
you randomly get the puck taken away from you, nobody else from the 
opposing team will come at you. 

More skill competition levels
-----------------------------
Successfully complete all of the skills in a competition level to 
unlock an additional level.

Get faceoffs
------------
Faceoffs are somewhat like a Paper, Rock, Scissors game, where one move 
beats another. In the game, X is similar to Paper, Circle is similar to 
Rock, and Square is similar to Scissors -- X beats Circle, Circle beats 
Square, and Square beats X. You can tell what the other person does by 
watching their stick. When they press X, their stick will twitch. When 
they press Circle, their hand will come off of the back of the stick. 
When they press Square, they will hold their stick up high. 

Catch fire
----------
Score a hat-trick with a player. To catch a team fire, score three 
consecutive one-timers with any player on your team. 

Team fire
---------
Score three one-timers without letting the other team score. 

End opponent's fire
-------------------
To extinguish the opposite team's fire, you must score a goal after a player 
catches fire or score a one-timer when the other team has a team fire. 

Better created team
-------------------
Create six players and remove all of the last three players' experience 
points. Give them to the first three players. That should give the first 
three players all the experience they need. 

Use team without buying them
----------------------------
If you want to use a team in the Hockey Shop, first you buy the team. 
Then, go to exit, save, and select continue without saving. You can 
now use the team. To get your money back, do not save at all after 
you buy the team. Reset after you are done.
