Ask about this game

Arcade hockey with fights that are actually mini-games. Passing beats skating. The one-timer from the faceoff circle is the whole offensive playbook.

Tips

  • Start here

    Pass, then shoot from the slot

    Don't carry the puck through three bodies. A drop pass at the blue line and a one-timer beats a skating duel. On defense, take the body before the poke-check.

  • Multiplayer

    Win the fight, take the power play

    The punch mini-game is timing, not mashing. A win is a 5-on-4 you should dump into the slot, not a breakaway you will miss.
