NHL 09: How to Become a Better EASHL Teammate

i kind of like using the high BAP cam for playing D only. you can actually see behind you pretty well which is the downfall of the classic cam like you mentioned. i wish there was a camera like classic but with more tilt to see behind you better.

Good article. Would like to see more analysis of this caliber. Also kinda makes me what to play goalie (normal sized).

Good advice for Dmen. I use over head camera and flip back and forth between camera locked on the puck and on me. I have found there is kind of a rhythm to it and it's pretty dependent on what kinda of team you are playing on and against. The old trick of counting the opposing team's players in front of you works well to cut down on the cherry pickers. Also, don't forget to glide into the passing lanes.
