For anyone who wants to use Total Control and not have Reverse hit on R3 and not have to wait for a patch or whatever, I THINK all of the consoles now let you re-map your buttons in the accessibility settings. When I'm playing NHL I swap R3 and left on the D-pad. But, to be honest, I don't know what left even does since I only play EASHL, so if it makes some strategies change when you click R3 now, I guess it's not a perfect work-around.
Sure I can't reverse hit, but it didn't seem like a good option this year, compared to years past when most people didn't even know about it, and most people are hip-checking this year anyway, which I don't think a reverse hit can do anything about (correct me if I'm wrong). Ah, you also can't really chop the puck without playing with a "claw grip"... So I guess it's not perfect... But I'd rather sacrifice that then accidentally lose the puck on a breakaway.

Yeah thought about it too but like you said by doing so you're removing the chop too. As someone who play 80% of the time on defense, I can't go on without the chop...so it's a no no for me.
And changing your xbox controls setting between nhl and the other games all the time quickly become annoying.
