Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - fun game
My son and daughter put together their "Christmas" present to buy this game. My daughter is a "travel" hockey player and her brother plays "house" but they are both big fans of both the "real" game and this video game. Every day my son tells me who he has "signed". Keeps them sharp in between practices and ice games!



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Disappointing NHL debut on the Wii
It's about time that we got an NHL game on the Wii, and NHL 2K9 is here to be just that. Boasting controls that take advantage of the Wii-mote, NHL 2K9 sounds promising, but sadly it doesn't quite deliver the way that it should. The Wii's nunchuk controls provide some brilliant skating controls that nicely simulate real skating, but passing and shooting the puck with the Wii-mote is a different story. Passing and shooting end up being more awkward than anything else, which is sad considering hockey ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Imbarasing
well, only buy this if you have a wii, and are obsessed with the NHL, i love my NHL, and i havent had a new one since EA's 01 and 05 on the PS2. well, i go this the day it came out, played one period, and shut it off to go play EA NHL 09 on the XBox. Havent played it since, Graphics, lol, cant even read the writing the graphics are so bad. my teams a what? 85 overall? what? everything looks like 8s with shadows. LOL



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Mannequins with sticks.
I think my cellphone has better graphics than this game. It is amazing that anyone rated this game more than two stars. The players all have this greyed out shaded look - and they all look stiff and characterless. Movements are stiff and robotlike. Announcers are lame. Gameplay is routine. Wii controls are a bit of a step back compared to playing with a plain old controller. 2K Sports should give a refund to all who buy this poor excuse for a hockey game. Played NHL 08 on the PC and THAT was 100 times ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - HMMMM
I was looking foreward to this game for so long. After getting it and playing it for one day I have to say I am very disappointed in it.
Graphics are crummy you cant read printed stuff on the scrren, the players all look alike and look as if they all have dark tans. Then there is the choppyness of the action on ice, at points during play the game sputtered and jumped.
The instruction manual, ha what joke 5 pages of nothing , didnt realy explain anything outside of using the controls. ... Read More
