I'm just going to say, don't get to pissed off. Many people have come through here with no ability to put the puck in the net and they can't do shit all with the puck. It is a learned skill and something that will take practice and not just demo stuff.
When I first started with NHL08, I spent probably about 30minutes a day in the practice mode learning the skill stick and how to shoot properly. Then add some defenders every once in awhile. It really helped when you don't have people always on you, and you can really learn some moves.
Offence and defence plays I would say don't worry about right now. Only because everyone is different. Somepeople play certain styles and it better suits them, so that is something you will figure out later on. I don't really look at it to much, but someone like leaffan actually sets his plays and all that.
NHL is one of those few games that if you play SIM / REAL hockey, you will do 100 times better. Move the puck around, and look for your chances. Use your blue line. You would be surprise how much that helps when you start letting point shots go. If you are only trying to put it in with your forwards, you are basically playing 5 on 3 hockey, so get it back to the blue line and cycle. Cycling the puck may be the best advice for helping you get better and get better chances. You'll learn the moves soon enough to dangle through a team, but in NHL12, those days seem to be gone.
