I have said many times that it's not easy to fix this without affecting how pivoting works. Which, in turn, affects backskating. Hopefully, we'll find a good way to fix this without also hurting pivoting.

EA_Aljo Make it so it only activates in the neutral zone and defensive zone, not offensive zone. Or make it only activate if a player is skating "down" the ice and not "up" the ice.

You need to be able to pivot in all zones. Not just NZ and DZ. Again, hopefully, we'll have a better solution for this in the future.

I usually try to give the devs the benefit of the doubt when it comes to fixing these types of things. I know from experience the pain of trying to fix things in software with lots of interconnected moving parts. It can be difficult to fix what you want to fix without breaking other things.
But on the LT issue, I think the community is completely justified in running out of patience. Videos on how to exploit the LT in NHL 25 were up before that game had even been out a week. In the NHL 26 play-tests people were reporting the return of ballerina twitch skating. And the cherry on top is that "we fixed the LT exploit" was one of the marketing bullet points for NHL 26.
It's been nearly fourteen months since the release of NHL 25 and the change to how LT works. When it works as intended it's great. But there's been known exploits since essentially day one and after more than a year "it's hard" starts to ring hollow.
