How do you do the 2-handed chop? I've tried and tried and all I can do with the poke check is the basic poke check, or sweep.

When you're approaching the boards with reasonable speed (offensive or defensive zone), start angling your body a bit with the left stick and then hit the right bumper. I've actually had better success mashing the bumper a few times as I approach it (double- or triple-tap). Once you get the angle and timing, you should get it almost every time. A very useful addition to the gameplay, I think.
