Description from the packaging.

It's not real hockey...
If it's not NHL powerplay 98.

Claude Lemieux doesn't check like Brind 'Amour in real life and he doesn't in NHL Powerplay 98 either. Khabibulin doesn't make glove saves like the Dominator and you'll have a tough time beating Cujo through the five hole. NHL powerplay 98 uses the actual styles and abilities of guys like Federov, Leetch, McSorley and every other player in the NHL to deliver the most realistic hockey game ever created. Because this is the big league. This is NHL Powerplay 98.

Scoring a hat trick with:

Real hockey moves.

  • From fake shots, stumble passes and one-timers to dump-ins, deflections and hooking.
  • Accurate skating physics for realistic controls.

Real hockey action.
