Icon passing not working in club games

tell me how identical passes in the same exact situations don’t always go the same direction? You can’t honestly say that 1000 out of 1000 passes will always go the same. I’ve had numerous situations where I’ve gotten a faceoff in the defensive end on the same side of the ice, my teammate is skating straight up the ice, joystick pointed exactly the same in both instances, yet one goes right to him and one goes off the wall out of his reach for an icing. Literally no difference in the situation whatsoever, yet the pass result is vastly different.

I would wager pass assist is causing your inconsistency. Try knocking it down to 50 and work your way up using this scenario as a test.

Icon passing was especially helpful with the stretch outlet passes, and it is definitely frustrating that this feature has not worked visually for 3+ months now. 

Icon passing is easily one of the best things added to the game in recent memory. People who don't use it or don't like it just haven't adopted the tactic into their fast-twitch reflexes. It takes a conscious effort to use icon passing and often times, players just fall back to what they know when playing a particularly sweaty opponent. 

That said, there's a HUGE payoff for becoming skilled at icon-passing. The accuracy buff alone is enough to warrant the time investment in getting the hang of it, but once you've mapped out in your mind where your icons are on the ice - putting together a sick passing play becomes as simple as a button combo. Yes, this could be accomplished with regular passing but the accuracy of icon passing and the speed of icon passes makes it much more fluid. 

In sincerely hope EA fixes it and brings it back. From what I recall, it's a simple rendering issue causing the icons simply not to appear above players' heads. So the functionality hasn't been broken. Just seems odd it hasn't been fixed yet but we get new jackets for the trainers on the bench the instant it's changed in real life. 

It's just odd to me how the icons pop up perfectly fine in Pro-AM as well as all the offline modes. It's specifically only broken in 6s/3s WoC. Dunno why.

It's been 4 months since this original post, do we have an update here???

I thought I was going crazy with this, and this is the ONLY forum that is discussing that it's an actual bug in the game. THANK YOU OP for putting this out there.

Please advise 

Hey there. Unfortunately, I don't have any news on this. We'll have to wait and see if it's addressed with a future update.

Unfortunately this will not be fixed for the remainder of NHL 25, Hopefully its fine by the time NHL 26 Drops in September 

Thanks man, this is INSANE this happened and nobody is even addressing it in patch notes. Someone mentioned earlier in this chain that there is no One Tee "target" either bc there is no option to turn it on in settings, this needs to be fixed too.
