Remapping Elite 2 Is Controller for NHL
Just purchased a new Xbox Elite 2 controller in the hope it lasts longer than a few months. It's always the left stick that gets stick drift and I'm putting it down to constantly clicking it playing ...

I've had the same 2 Elite Series 2 controllers for a couple of years with no issues. For NHL 24, I remapped the left stick click to one of the left paddles and right stick click to one of the right paddles. I disabled clicking down on both sticks. I accidentally clicked them too much and it drove me absolutely crazy every time.

I like the sound of that. Is it easy to do?
It's not arriving until Saturday so wasn't really sure what it was capable of doing.
Thanks 😊

Yep. Just got to your Xbox settings > Devices & connections > Controllers & headsets. You should see your controller listed here with the option to remap the controls. This set up is taking me some getting used to, but it's not too bad so far. Definitely glad to not be doing fake shots and protecting the puck when I don't want to. I just did this about a week ago. After some 15+ years of the skill stick controls, it's taking some time to retrain my hand to use the paddles instead of clicking down, but it's coming along.
Nice thing is you can unmap buttons as well. I got sick of the stupid reverse check going off when trying to shoot, so...umapped the right thumbstick click down option and now it no longer goes off. I just quickly switch to a separate profile using a simple push of the profile button on the controller when I need to use that right thumbstick click to say, view player stats in the UI. Only thing it cant do is map button combos, which would have been super nice.
