This was a very fun game for me. My favorite part was making custom players. You can make a whole team of all your friends with skills that fit their personality. Lets say your friend was fast, you could pump their skill points for being fast to the max. Other than that, you just play hockey with other teams. it's also fun to play online against other people. If one of your friends bought the game and made a player of them and you made a player of you, you could put them head to head to see which was better. I can't really say anything other than that. It's hockey...You score a goal, the red light goes on and the crown cheers. It's a fun game to play but there's nothing special about hockey. I thought the creators did a good job making it though considering all that had to work with was that they were supposed to make a hockey game.
