Community ManagerWe always appreciate feedback. That plays a big part in what changes with each game and in the patches we release throughout the year. However, we also aren't going to act on everything that's being requested. The NHL 94 controls are 99% the same as Hybrid. So, I am assuming that is the reason they were removed. Since there's already a layout that includes those controls. Faceoffs are different since you are using the stick instead of hitting a button.
What specifically do the NHL 94 controls do that is not covered by the Hybrid layout?
No they are not the same because if they were then both options would have never been in the game these years. It is nice to have the trigger button to speed up or three buttons to shoot & pass back in the day like the Genesis you had 3 buttons plain and simple but the problem with todays games is you have to press this push this forward tap that to do one thing let the die hard gamers have the option that works for them but for those who like it plain and simple don't take it away and make us pay for no reason at all. So you ask what is the difference according to you nothing so then take the hybrid option away and put back the NHL 94 controls the door swings both ways.

Passing, wrist shot, slapshot and hitting are all on the face buttons. Hustle is done by clicking down on left stick. It's all still simple, one button controls. Except for faceoffs. You have to flick down on the right stick. There's no need to do button combinations. You can still play with those 30 year old controls, except for the very small change to faceoffs.
what I don't like about hybrid controls is the faceoffs to begin with, the passes too and even if you tell me to do this or that deal I'm not a technological person. This is why I am asking for the return of the NHL 94 controls which are easier for me and for other people. I think you should stop and understand instead of trying to force people. It's like buying a pair of shoes if I take a size 10 I don't take an 8 I take a 10 so don't force me to take an 8 which doesn't fit me. So I hope you will understand and that the NHL 94 controls will come back because I am tired of explaining this situation and no one agrees to listen to me especially since I am not the only one in this situation.
