(BTW, it IS possible to score on the computer.. Direct shots are almost guaranteed to miss, but quick angle shots to altering sides work quite well.)

Maybe make him move most of the way back from a block, but not go there exactly.
IMO you should be able to score on him from a front attack if you can get it through right after a side block, as of now thats impossible. :{
Still, great game! You could probably take it commercial by supplying an interface and personalities who you played against (with different styles, etc). There was a game like that with a space theme many years ago, fun stuff.

I think if I were going to take it commercial though, the biggest thing to add would be network play. (Although how on earth I'd deal with lag on a high-speed game like this, I have no idea...)
Here's a question for you though: What do you think about the lack of a scoring system? I've considered adding one, but I think it might lose some of the addiction-factor. (i.e. splitting it up into 7-point games would provide good breaking points, making players more likely to quit..) Although I guess if I did add multi-player (somehow), it'd sort of have to have a scoring system..
you should definitly add some scoring system. And it's way to fast on my machine, I can barely see the puck...so some adjustable speed (could also be used for difficulty) would be great.
