As we previously stated, these would return post-launch. I don't have a date, but obviously we want it back as soon as possible. When we have some news, we'll make an announcement on our official channels.

Does this also mean old goalie controls will return post launch as well?

@EA_Aljo i can only play with one hand. Unfortunately, with both control selections, I can't play NHL. hybird control was perfect for me. I hope EA brings hybrid control back. if not, then I feel excluded from EA
