Yup same. R1. Hold it longer than a second, you'll get a slower higher sauce.

Like, R1 to Saucer Pass, Press/Hold R1 and flick right stick down for low and fast, flick RS down and up (slapshot) for higher but slower.
Still lets you flick up RS + hold R1 for the tip shots in the offensive zone, and I can't think of any slap shot involving holding down R1.
