Control
I don't mind the new controls, the only thing that bothers me is that when I want to mix with the puck and I press L3 sprint, the player covers the puck with his body and holds the puck with one hand... it pisses me off

I think it would be much more intuitive to have R3 be the "lacrosse/flex" button rather than the reverse hit. You're already using the R button to shoot and anyone who actually plays hockey knows to activate the flex you need to bear down on your stick when shooting. I hate when I want to load up and shoot a wrister my guy tries to reverse hit at the wrong moment. I do like the idea of easier controls which is more in tune with today's game. There is one move I notice EA never has gotten right but it extremely useful in hockey. This move is when a player next to the net, with their back or side to the goalie, pivots with their blade foot first to the forehand and shoots when in close. It's similar to between the legs but much easier and more practical.
