Any help?

Right before the puck gets to you, tap UP on the right stick. I made sure I held L trigger down though.

So nobody has noticed the omission of the useless Juicy one-handed deke? I think it's awesome that it's gone. A bit surprising, since it was the main picture on the back of the box last year, but happy nonetheless.

Love the demo. This game is great.

My brother and I have been doing head-to-head for a little bit...passing is really tough, but has a lot of potential.

Boardplay is a godsend.

I have always done this with no positive results, too bad for me then :S.

Ah, apparently the one-handed deke requires pressing Vision Control first. I like that. I won't use it, but I like that they made it require a modifier button press first.

It isn't gone. You have to hold LT and then you can do it.

One-timer passing...

With the Hardcore Game Style is it possible to do tic-tac-toe plays???

Seems like it would be rather difficult for the 2nd or 3rd passes to have any 'mustard' on em if they need to be loaded up.

Wow.. this demo is awesome.

I like how first they introduce to you the basics as I didn't play NHL 09. Good stuff.

I then chose Pitt and immediately they brought up the Crosby injury and asked if I wanted to play him or not. Niiiiice.
