NHL 16 Goalie Tips - How to Save the Cross Crease

[betweenthepipes]

Points covered:

- Reset your goalie to the back and middle of your net after the puck leaves the zone. When the puck approaches the blue line t-push up into position to the necessary depth. This helps you keep track of your goalie every play and so that you don't have to make up for being out of position as soon as the puck enters the zone.

- Line your shoulder up with the puck and adjust your depth depending on how close both the puck carrier and the open man are to your net.

- The tools: RS butterfly slide, desperation saves, and the regular butterfly slide (L2/LT + R2 + LS).

- Judge the players depth. If they have enough space they can make a move, make another pass, or delay their shot.

- Trust your defense. This year our d-men finally have the ability to break up passes and effectively help you out.

Let me know what you guys think.
