NHL 2005 cheats

Hint : Easy goals:
For all European teams is the World Cup of Hockey, all goalies will let in hard wrist shots from either the right or left.

First, choose the "Aggressive Faceoff" with the Left Analog-stick. Pass to the player to your right. That exact player can go easily in a breakaway. While you control this player, call for help with R2. When you get halfway between the goal and the blue line, stop for about three sec. By stopping, you will dodge the opposing defense's check. Then, go on in a circular way to the back of the goal. Hold Circle and release it when you get just about past the net. You will score a goal about 80% of the time.

All Canadian goalies let in a hard slap shot from the point. Make sure to set the strategy to "Aggressive" and the defensive strategy to "High Pressure".

If you turbo across the front of the net and shoot on the other side you are more likely to score.

Hint: Breakaways:
Most aggressive face-off formations have a far winger. Shooting or passing the puck in his direction might lead to some breakaways.

Hint: Deflections:
Deflections can be done the same way as a one-timer. Shoot from the point and press Shoot again with players in front.

Hint: Change song:
Press L3 to change the current song.

Hint: Unlockable videos:
After you press Start at the title screen, different videos will appear. You can unlock more videos by playing with different teams and leagues.

Hint: Getting good players cheaply:
Get your legal upgrades all the way up so that you can sign players for less. Save the game then release a high paying player into free agency. Immediately negotiate a new contract. With all the upgrades you can get players to take multimillion dollar pay cuts. Make sure you save first -- if you go too low on the offer the player may be insulted and not talk to your team anymore.
