SUMMARY:                   
Get out of the stands and onto the ice!  High-flyin', hard hittin', intense power play hockey action is back with NHL 2001.  Lace up the skates and play with or against all 30 NHL teams including the new expansion Columbus Blue Jackets and Minnesota Wild.  NHL 2001 invites the world to play with the addition of 20 international teams including Ukraine and Latvia.
QUICK REVIEW:                     
+ Awesome intro movie, jaw-dropping graphics, realistic puck physics, hits are more solid here than in most football games, sliders can be used in the options menu to fine tune the gameplay to suit your needs, one of the best multiplayer sports games ever

- Computer goalie can be too good compared to your goalie on higher difficulty levels
