• All eyes are on you
  Be a Pro by creating a player for an entire career. Earn trophies and your very own hockey card as your coach rates you in 60 categories. Play well or you might get traded.
• EA sports hockey league
  Throw your newly created player online, join a team with up to 50 friends, and become one of the first to experience massive multiplayer online play in a console sports video game. Featuring live six vs. six team play, become the first great name in online hockey.
• Check hard and fight
  An physics-based checking and fighting engine brings a whole level of intensity to the game. Catch players with their head down and lay them out like never before.
• Defensive skill stick
  NHL 08 provided true offensive prowess with the Skill Stick - now you have the power to stop it. Block passing lanes with 360� control of your stick or disrupt an opponent's one-timer by lifting their stick just before they receive a pass.
• Light the lamp in spectacular fashion
  A weapon has been added to your offensive arsenal - the one-handed deke. During breakaways or in open ice, tap the puck to one hand then tuck it behind a sprawling goalie for the ultimate finish.
• Get everyone in the game
  Shoot, pass, and score using a simplified two-button control system from the glory days of NHL 94.
