Easy Goals

When you have the puck, swing around the opponent's net. If the goalie is on the other side, then shoot with back hand shot. This best works with two players, so that other person can distract the goalie.

Bouncing Puck

Go to game settings menu and adjust the 'Puck Friction', 'Puck Gravity' and every option you can adjust on that screen that has to do with the puck. Go to a game and shoot the puck down the ice. If it does not hit the goalie, the puck should be bouncing all over the place until it runs out of speed.

Getting Good Players

In dynasty mode, rack up on draft picks by signing unwanted free agents and trading them to random teams for draft picks. Doing this also earns you GM experience points.

Freeze Game

When in Create A Player, typing in a certain name will cause the game to freeze. While typing in one of the members of Gob (Gabe Metal), the screen will freeze. For example, typing Metal, then Gabe will freeze the screen, as well as typing Gabe, then Metal.
