NHL 2K2

Game modes include Exhibition, Season (now optionally only of half length), Playoffs and, newly added, Tournaments. Players can be created and traded and rosters edited. Coaching controls allow setting of strategies and lines. The game includes a basic control mode that uses the face buttons for all actions, and an advanced mode that uses the trigger buttons to modify the actions of the face buttons, allowing for a higher variety of moves. The game also features play-by-play commentary by L.A. Kings announcer Bob Miller.
