How to play NHL?

Hey i need some help on how to play NHL 11. I know nothing about hockey and this is the first hockey game ive played since the NES. Can sum1 tell me what does what i gathered R2 passes and right analog takes shots that's it.

shockingly enough thats pretty much there is. other than r2 and the right stick. the only other buttons used are X for protecting the puck and L1 for dangles.

All it takes is mastering the two, aka holding the pass button for more power, give and goes. getting a cycle going ect.

I would recommend playing online as much as possible and throw yourself into the fire, its the best way to get good.

maybe choose a good team also, Vancouver, Detroit, San Jose.

I would start by changing the controls to classic controls and go from there.
