Well, I hate to say it, but get used to it. This game freezes at about 5 different spots. It freezes while loading Be A GM when it gets to 100% about 1/5 times, it freezes in game, it freezes in HUT... the game is riddled with bugs. All I know is how to stop the in-game freezes:

Then, go to Game Data Utility, and delete the NHL 12 data, (this deletes the patches and such, but will not delete any settings/rosters/Be a GM... etc). Then restart your PS3. Load NHL 12, and you'll be prompted to download the 1.04 Patch again. Download it.

Whether it freezes or not I'd like the game to start. Any ideas for this problem

Or you can not try my suggestion.

He gave you an idea and here's another thread discussing it:

The Freezing has gotten ridiculous

We don't need a separate thread on this.
