I have been a B+ for a while, and there are a few things I try to do as a forward that really help the teamplay score (which is the hardest grade to improve IMO).
1. Learn to dump, and dump often. Slap dumping the puck around the boards improves teamplay, and gives your opposite winger a chance to retrieve and set up the play. It also reduces your chances of turning the puck over as you enter the zone. Dumps = higher teamplay score, Turnovers = low teamplay score.
2. When in the zone, make a lot of quick passes back to your d-man or around the boards to a team mate. Lots of connecting passes = higher teamplay score.
3. Take good shots. Don't shoot into too much traffic, blocked shots affect teamplay. If you shoot, get it to the net. Good shots = higher teamplay, Blocked shots = low teamplay score.
That's all I have for now, but if a forward masters these three skills then the teamplay score will definitely go up.
