it is almost the same as midi cut alot but you will take more inside shots, make sure you have a good quick-stick and close proxy dodges. If you run an offence out of X you will probaly be setting picks for the midi up high.
You can seach online and look for people like Mikey Powell, Gary Gait, and Mark Millon. Look at there games and do what they do if it goes with you offence

This should help.

on a fast break the attackmen usually line up in an "L" formation on either side. I thnik the most succesful thing you can do as an attackmen is a backdoor cut around the crease. as soon as the defenseman turns even a second, break around the crease and look for a pass.

one thing that has been said that helps alot is to keep moving on an off ball
(cutting, popping out to catch a pass, theres more that i dont know someone else should post what else you can do on an off ball)

A good thing to do off ball is switch around with your other attack man and set picks for each other, if you and your oppistie man can also switch through the middle. This will help you if they switch it may confuse them because one may not hear it and you created an open man right on the goal and possibly screen the goalie. A good rule is that you should never be in the same place for more than 5 seconds, move around even if its pointless. Eventually your defender will get board and he will not recognize when you do move because he will think it's pointless.
