I cannot for the life of me make a pass into the slot. It can't happen. Pretty much the only ways I've been able to score goals is by beating the goalie in a 1 on 1 type match up..
I can't get shots through on the point, I can't make a cross ice pass, HELP.

I'll give you a hint.
Brent Sutter style hockey.
You gotta dump that biscuit in, go get it, work it around the outside to open up the defenders, work it to the half wall for the pass up the boards to the waiting defender or if the defenders are sufficiently spread out, drive it hard into the middle of the ice and try to place a shot far side or low off the pads for a rebound.
Switch your strategies to crash the net or behind the net. The only way overload works is in all-star games.
If you can learn to grind it out in this game and make short passes in and out of board play to nearby teammates, you'll start winning a lot of games 2-0. It's really rewarding to score one of those goals, too.
