_________________________

This game, as the name suggests, is a hockey simulation which is very similar to Mario Lemieux Hockey. There are 22 teams to choose from which are based on the NHL 91 line up though they can be changed if the player wishes. You control 1 player at a time and the CPU controls the rest of your team though you can switch to a different player at any time if the need arises. There is also a fight penalty system where you have to continually punch the an opponent in order to proceed. The game is viewed from an isometric perspective as if you were sat in one of the crowd seats.

Hints:

Play with the Perfect Team - Enter the password "BATSXPEB".  The "X" will turn into a heart and then pressing "OK" brings up a Bat cartoon with the lines

YES SIR.
NO SIR.
THREE BAGS
FULL SIR.

Then when you go to the play game screen, you can choose a new team from Group D:  "The Bats", which has *perfect* stats! Two notes: if you try to re-enter the password BATSXPEB then you get a still pic of a bat (sleeping?) with the message

BORING.

Also, the Bats are an American team, since the anthem played for them is the US National Anthem.  (There is also some color change of the LA Kings uniform, possible others... but I am not familiar enough with these teams to know... we don't see much Hockey down here in New Orleans...).
