It also helps if you use a winger. They'll leave the points open, but the front of the net is still covered by your 2 d-men. But sometimes there's really nothing you can do.
My pet-peeve is the slap-flip-pass one-timer out of mid-air.
People wind-up for a slapper, and as they're moving forward with the stick, they press the R2 button. It passes the puck about waist-high. It's a very difficult shot to master, but if you know how to do it, it gets you goals. I never use it, but people always seem to try it against me. That's usually a green light for me to use any moves I want.

I think I do that one, except I never get goals
.
I hold rb, and then slap shot, because I like the manual aim. The impossible tips you get from every player are fun to pull off, but I've only ever gotten one goal from it, and it wasn't in this league. I sometimes dump it around the boards like that if I'm in the offensive zone, so I can get it deep and not lose possession, of course, you don't know that since I basically put everyone on D against you lol.
