PS4 controller left stick issue
Issue in nhl 20 only, with original controller and a brand new one. To start with, I noticed in the player movement page that I cannot use the L2 tab for selecting another league. Aldo In game, my player keeps skating backwards with the puck. This has been an issue since maybe sometime after Christmas. Resetting controller(s) doesn't do anything. Can anyone help?

Are you using an official PS4 controller or one made by a third party manufacturer? Anything plugged into the PS4 like a controller charging dock, external hard drive, phone charger, etc.?
If it's doing this for both controllers and one being brand new, it sounds like it is either something like a device plugged into the PS4 causing a conflict with it or game files could be corrupted, so I'd advise reinstalling the game if you can.
I bought the NHL 20 via the Sony store so I'm assuming I can delete it and reinstall it?
Thing is, I need to reset the controller as soon as I need to press the x button to start the game. Even on another game I need to reset every time before entering the main menu.
If you are unable to send it back for a replacement you can always try unscrewing the cover off and reposition the L2 - plenty of tutorials on youtube for this sort of thing (I've had to fix a few R3's in my day)
Took apart the original controller but that didn't do anything except cause my R2 to not work. Ticked off that a 3 month old controller stopped working properly though , but still ok for certain games.
Our new controller is now in the same stage as the other ones. When the game starts with the PS button and loads to the point we need to press x to begin the game...the controller does respond when pressing x button. Need to press PS button and shut controller or reset controller manually and then we can continue to play some games. But we can't play games that require the L2 button.
Can anyone help?!? Called Sony but can't get to anyone
The PS4 controller triggers are much more sensitive to touches than Xbox controllers. They're designed to be played with your finger tips rather than grip them with your entire fingers. Do you or anyone in the household put a lot a pressure on the triggers? I've seen that result in issues for other games as well.
Do you have the latest software update for your console? This is starting to sound more hardware related based off the newly purchased controller working for a short period of time.
I'll check in tomorrow...
