Step 1: Channel Your Inner Gumby (Positioning is Key)
Imagine you're about to limbo under a low doorway. That's the kind of posture you need. Hold the puck on your forehand (left side if you're righty, right side if you're lefty). Now, press and hold L1 and click down on the right stick. You should be in a glorious squat, ready to confuse the goalie like a magician with a disappearing puck.
Step 2: The Flick of the Wrist (Where Timing Becomes Your Best Friend)
This is where things get spicy. With the right stick still pressed down, flick it in a semi-circle motion. We're talking 7 o'clock to 4 o'clock for righties, and 4 o'clock to 7 o'clock for lefties. But here's the catch: timing is tighter than a mummy's wrapping. Go too slow and the puck will fall off like a forgotten dream. Go too fast and...well, let's just say the goalie won't need those reflexes.
Pro-Tip: Don't be afraid to practice this move in practice mode first. Your teammates might judge, but trust us, a broken controller is way worse.
Tip: Read at your own pace, not too fast.
Step 3: Witness Me! (Go For Glory)
If the hockey gods smiled upon you and the puck stayed put, you should be staring at an open net. Now's your chance to unleash your inner Ovechkin! Slam that right stick up and prepare to celebrate the most stylish goal your opponent has ever seen.
Remember: The Michigan is a high-risk, high-reward move. Don't expect to pull it off every time. But hey, the look on your opponent's face when you do? Priceless.
