Taunts
Hold [Triangle] after scoring a goal, winning a fight, winning a game, or when the opposing team gets a penalty.

Easy trades
If you want a trade for a player, but the other team declines, make the team you want the player from a user controlled team. You can now easily trade for the player. Change the team back to CPU controlled afterwards.

Easy goals
Get a big shooter (a player with a little stick blade icon) to shoot on net. If you shot hard enough, the goalie will get knocked down. Shoot into the "empty" net for an easy goal.

The following trick requires two controllers. Have controller two be over the opposing team. Pull the goalie, make player two quit or join the other team.

When your playing a season and need some goals, pause game play, go to "Controllers", then "Controller Setup". Set your control to the opposing team, exit that menu, and pull the goalie. Resume the game, pause again, enter the "Controllers" screen again and set control back to your team. The CPU will leave the goalie pulled.

Get a good shooter and go to your own blue line. Flick a quick wrist shot and the puck should fly over the opposing goalies head for a goal. If done correctly, you should score every time.

When taking a faceoff at center ice, repeatedly press [X] and hold [Up] or [Down], depending on the way you are shooting. The puck will most likely shoot down the ice and go between the goalie's pads for a goal.

When playing in season mode, if you want your team to win the Stanley Cup, play multi-team mode and make your division rivals lose key games intentionally.
