The Michigan? What's That?
For the uninitiated (or those who spent their childhood perfecting the art of the knuckle puck), the Michigan is a lacrosse-style maneuver where you cradle the puck on your stick behind the net, then scoop it up and over the goalie's head for a highlight-reel finish. Think of it as the ultimate act of disrespect... with a side of pure skill.
Alright, I'm In. How Do I Do This Sorcery?
Now that you're itching to become the next viral sensation (or at least confuse your online opponents), here's how to pull off the Michigan in NHL 24:
QuickTip: Use CTRL + F to search for keywords quickly.
There are two main control schemes to consider, so buckle up, Buttercup.
- The Skill Stick Shuffle: This one's a bit more complex, so grab a Red Bull. Here's the recipe for magic:
- Forehand Power: Make sure your player has the puck on their forehand.
- LB + RS Hold: Hold the Left Bumper (Xbox) or L1 (PlayStation) and the Right Stick down simultaneously.
- Right Stick Counter-Clockwise: With those buttons depressed, swirl the Right Stick in a counter-clockwise motion, channeling your inner barista.
- The One-Button Wonder: This option is for those who like things simple (or maybe have questionable hand-eye coordination). Here's the lowdown:
- Hold Y/Triangle: For Xbox users, that's the Y button. PlayStation peeps, hit Triangle. Hold it near the net behind the goalie.
- Release at the Right Moment: Timing is key here. Let go of the button just as you're about to go around the net for that sweet, sweet Michigan magic.
Pro Tip: Practice, practice, practice! The Michigan might look flashy, but it takes finesse (and maybe a bit of luck) to pull off consistently.
Tip: Reread sections you didn’t fully grasp.
Wait, There's More? Michigan Maneuvering Tips
- Not All Heroes Wear Capes (But Maybe They Do for This Move): The Michigan works best with players who have high deking and agility attributes.
- Location, Location, Location: Don't just try this move anywhere. Ideally, you want to be close to the net behind the goalie, with some space to maneuver.
- Surprise is Your Best Friend: The Michigan is most effective when your opponent least expects it. So, fake a shot, deke them out, then BAM! Michigan time.
