NHL 2000 Overview
NHL 2000 is a licensed ice hockey simulation based on the 1999 professional season. Its authenticity extends to the inclusion of real teams, players, and arenas from that period.
Control during matches is focused on a single skater, with the ability to instantly switch to another teammate. Core actions for this player include passing, shooting, and executing a temporary sprint. Beyond direct control, management options allow for adjusting team lineups and designating which athletes are permitted to serve penalties.
Several structured modes of play are available, ranging from a single exhibition match to a complete season and a playoff-focused scenario. The game also features a competitive shootout mode. Rules can be customized, with settings for offside calls and the general strictness of officiating.
