How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I have seen a Reddit form with other people with this issue, and they even have a video to show what's happening; https://www.reddit.com/r/NHLHUT/comments/170dxco/just_doing_a_simple_leftright_move_and_it_looks/
What happens when the bug occurs? Every time my character has the puck and I push the right stick to the left my character ends up performing a fake shot. I am not pushing the right stick in, but only to the left (9 o'clock). It doesn't matter where I am on the ice or what the situation is, when I push my right stick to try and stickhandle towards my forehand the game decides to fake a shot. I have tried different controllers on my Xbox, and I had a friend come over and try using my controller to see if maybe I am accidentally pushing in the right stick, but he was having the same issues. Pushing the right stick to the left = fake shot for my WoC character during any 6v6 club game. This also occurs in any WoC 6v6 drop-in game.
What do you expect to see? Pushing the right stick to the left should just put the puck on my character's forehand (lefty), and not perform a fake shot.

Hi there, @Grimmer9
Unfortunately, this isn't a bug. It's part of the changes to the skill stick controls since the fake shot was moved to clicking down on the right stick. It's incredibly annoying. The best I can advise is to go into the controller settings on your Xbox and disable right stick clicking. Personally, I have an Elite Pro controller and have moved the right stick click to use one of the paddles. That has resolved this and stick handling is fine. I really wish this were a bug because I miss the old controls.
