There are a lot of ways to play well in NHL 22 and the 'Be a Pro' mode. It depends on your position and what type of role you'd like to have on the team. Perform well in that role and you'll be playing more in no time.

Actions like scoring goals, killing penalties, defending goals, and earning assists are some great ways to impress your in-game coach. A good game sense like that is just the first step, however.

At times, before or during a game in the NHL 22 Be a Pro mode, your coach will call over your player for a discussion. He will issue a challenge to your player with one of two options available to select.

These objectives will vary depending on what type of situation the team is in. It can be anything from keeping your team in the lead to scoring a single goal before the game is over.

Completing whatever objective your coach sets for you in NHL 22 is a huge step toward more playing time. A successful objective will add points to your character's Management Likeability statistic.

The higher your Management Likeability is, the more your coach will want you on the ice. You will get more playing time. If you fail, though, that stat will decrease, which could mean less playing time.
