Choose Computer Goalie

Need some assistance? This trick lets you pick the computer's goalie. When you reach the screen before the face-off, use Controller Two to select the computer's goalie. You can even pick "No Goalie" and leave your opponent helpless!

Edit Other Team

If you are the home team, you can edit the other teams lines. All you do is use the second controller just before the game and you can edit lines as well as change the goalie.

Shorter Periods

For a much faster game, hold A + C and press Start on the Select screen. The game's periods will shorten to 30 seconds each!

Whistle Stop

If you need a whistle (ie. need a line change, goalie caught out of the net, one goal lead with 10 seconds left) you can get one by simply calling time out. All you do is press start, scroll down the menu screen and call time out. When you return to the game, the whistle will sound and play will stop.

Free Face-off Win

While taking a face-off hold B and you will win the face-off every time!

Player into Goalie

To change any player into a goalie on the fly, simply hold down the C button
as if you were taking a slapshot and then press START while releasing the C button.
