Re: NHL 22 controls

Thanks @Socair for the reply.

I am pretty sure that my player is in motion. So while pressing L2 should it be accompanied with L to remain in motion.

Or is it like L(start skating), stop pressing L and quickly press L2 while in motion ?

I’d have to test more, but I know it works when skating with L for sure. Should still activate while in a glide, but you will have more control over spin direction if still using the left stick. I would say you’re issue is likely the length of the L2 press. It has to be a tap essentially, but ensure you’re fully depressing the button. 

I found the auto hustle and toggled it to off.

Now I have some control on my player.

But can't seem to get the spin to work ☹️

Does spin-o-rama work in 'Free skate' ?

If I switch to `Team Practice`, I notice that there is a hint to perform spin-o-rama and if I press L2 at that point, it does perform it, but not always. Maybe once in 20 times.

Not sure what I am doing wrong. I press the L2 fully and it's just a tap, as you said. But spin is inconsistent.

I switch to `Free Skate` to practice, but it would never spin in that arena.

I would assume that I can spin anytime, right, not when the other player is nearby. And at any speed, there is no min/max speed for spin

Yeah it should be working for you. Not sure if it’s the L2 button itself or just the mechanic giving you trouble. 
You could try switching your controller set up from within your PS5 accessibility settings (https://www.playstation.com/en-ca/support/hardware/ps5-accessibility-settings/#controller). Swap L2 and L1 maybe? See if you have more success with using L1 for spins.
