A Few NHL 11 Scoring Tips

If you are a PC game enthusiast you probably cannot do without NHL at your console. Most of us love the game but where we were pros last year this year it is difficult to shine as much. The killer shots seem useless now and there is nothing worse than to get kicked while doing your best moves on the ice. Here are a few NHL 11 scoring tips to assist in your comeback to the top.

What every pro will start you with is to tell you to achieve synchronized movement with your teammates. In order to score you need to attack and in order to attack you need to develop harmony for the passes to culminate into a score. Therefore get into your teammates rhythm and anticipate where best to pass the puck and in so doing you will start gaining the much needed possession.

Direct shots are ever difficult to bear fruit but instead try to make use of deflected shots. Attack at an angle and shoot suddenly to ensure that the goalie does not respond in time to save the subsequent shot that goes straight to the net. If the goalie exposes a direct shot do not delay-put the puck behind the net at once.

Many have found out that corner shots are often lucky without explaining why but you require moving your players body, a little confidence and practice to stun your opponent in this manner. However, do not get frustrated when you do not hack it as fast as you would want.

At the end of the day patience pays in NHL. It is detrimental to lose your cool and attack unless you are doing extremely well and you are on a winning stream. If you leave your teammates behind you are bound to give away the puck and that mistake will cost you a score especially if you are caught on the blind.

At the most basic, it is advisable to develop a few different strategies to apply as the need arise. At the same time keep an eye ready to hit at the opponent every time they expose a weakness. Attack every chance possible especially if you are constrained to score or lose a game.

To get out of thick spots learn to use the slap pass to send the puck away from your defense. You can also utilize the shot in attack mode to launch an assault into your opponents hot zone. If your scores are higher and time is running out put up a good defense or you risk losing your victory especially in pro mode. Above all else have fun in the rink.
