I am beyond sick of poke check

You guys STILL haven't fixed the aim assist poke check. It's ridiculous and has been exploited for the last THREE years. Do you even play your own game? Who decided that it would be a good idea to make poke check auto aim? 

I can't believe I can't get a refund of this game.

    What a silly thing to get angry about. Why don't you stop skating into the poke checks? They're not even OP this year.

    If I were to skate into a poke check it would result in my player being off-balance and end in a tripping call. 

    I make sauce passes, slap passes, back door passes, dekes, chip puck off boards / glass. Still the poke check seems to pick off everything if players spam it enough times. Even when it seems that a poke check would have been impossible ie. My opponent is not even facing the play and their player no look pokes the puck away. 

    What ticks me off even more so is when I deke around my opponent and then they just magically are able to poke check immediately after I managed to get away. 

    They haven't addressed the clear problems people have been complaining about. 

    This game is just a spam poke check and far side glitch goal simulator. It's boring.

    The hitting system is great but it's still useless as players that get destroyed seem to just get up and recover faster than the player that hit them. 

    It's pointless. NHL 24 is a huge swing and a miss.

    @SturmWolfe It literally slows the player down and it's the worst aim of any poke check in NHL series history...

    I don't think I've been poke checked once thinking I shouldn't have been in around 20 hours played online.

    Not trying to be confrontational but regardless of how bad 24 is in your eyes, if you are getting repeatedly poke checked, you are 100% doing something wrong. Poke checking is terrible and the worst it's ever been, at least that I can remember. Poke checking is terrible. Either you have terrible luck and only play vs top players who seem to have problems with it still or you just are not doing the right things. Anyone can skate around and pass without being pkked regularly.
