To the user in NHL 09 I have to take part in hockey tournaments. The player takes control of one of the presented teams. It can't just be America's rich and powerful world conference. You can try your hand at the Czech or Russian championships. But the emphasis is on the North American tournament. First of all, you need to decide on a club. You can make your own composition. The player creates his own athletes. This applies to customizing his appearance, physical condition, experience and skill. In addition, the team can be replenished with famous and strong players who have distinguished themselves with their achievements over the past hundred years. The parameters of your charges can be gradually improved.

The main goal in NHL 09 is to win the Stanley Cup, the most coveted trophy in hockey. To do this, you will need to take a place in the final standings, which guarantees the club's passage to the next round. Here, the elimination matches begin. As a result of the draw, an opponent is provided. The series lasts up to three victories of one of the teams. And so on until the final siren. To achieve success, you should think over tactics for each meeting. You will also have to take direct part in battles on the ice. The gamer takes control of each hockey player in turn. Here you need to do feints, accurate passes, or irresistible strikes. When the puck flies into the goal, you feel the indescribable joy of all participants.
