If we're going to have an honest discussion about what can and can't be done to improve defence, it's imperative that you be honest about what plays out in the clips you're providing.
This is not an auto-animation. This is a poke check and/or DSS being initiated at the exact time you are about to make contact/intercept the puck.

Never said it was perfect my dude. I understand a videogame cannot replicate real life. I'm not bitter towards developers for my lack of grasping mechanics and working with them in the state they're in to improve may chances of getting ideal outcomes.

Blind poke checks are an issue , don't get me wrong. I'm not a huge fan of less-than-skilled players being able to mash poke check and get the outcome they want when they've been burned already. That said, I think the rate at which this happens successfully is overstated.
