NHL 2005 - Game cheats, tips and tricks for XBox
Easy goals:
-----------
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 Black. 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 B and release it when you get just about past the net. You will score
a goal about 80% of the time. Additionally, for all European teams in the World
Cup of Hockey, all goalies will let in hard wrist shots from either the right or
left. Also, if you turbo across the front of the net and shoot on the other side
you are more likely to score.
Breakaways:
-----------
Most aggressive face-off formations have a far winger; shooting or passing the
puck in his direction can lead to some breakaways.
Deflections:
------------
Deflections can be done the same way as a one-timer; shoot from the point and
press Shoot again with players in front.
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.
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.
Change song:
------------
Click the Left Analog-stick to change the current song.
