Check out the patch notes below.

Gameplay

• Fixed a rare case where the puck could stop dead when passed or shot around the boards
• Various interception logic tuning
• Reduced player ability for pickups outside skaters field of view (1 hand behind the back pickups) so they do not play as often and as unrealistically fast
• Defensive awareness attribute made more effective and tuned the windows in which players can intercept pucks within their field of view
• Improved player head tracking of the puck
• Players tuned to have less balance/preparedness when pivoting or backskating with the puck
• Fixed the issue where holding pass would negate spins from working which opened up holes in skating blends
• Fixed an issue where slapshots in the defensive end would target your own net instead of the left stick direction
• Further improvements to covers for pucks underneath the goaltender
• Fixed a case where the goalie would continuously lose the puck when performing a between the legs cover
• Fixed a few cases where the puck was able to slip past the goalie unintentionally while they were tight to the post
• Increased the amount of stick contact on legs/skates needed to cause a trip
