Make Hitting Great Again
Put the same controls we've had for 15 years back in the game.

They made some really stupid decisions this year but I don't think hitting is one of them - Say what you want about the dedicated hipcheck button I've been begging for for years, but it's about time they made hitting a little more nuanced.
Offense and defense has always been imbalanced and pretty much nobody but the L2 abusers enjoy it; Defense requires you to be too perfect to pull off anything useful and you're further punished by horrid AI D/goalies
@TTZ_Dipsy Yep. And all the posts asking to bring that back and make puck protect easier. Having to use the analog sticks to protect the puck is hard but defensemen aiming hits and using DSS "balances" the game. I play Center when I can but pick "skater" if playing drops.. this game is doing an awful job with balance. Expected after hearing all the changes but it's pretty bad.
