@TTZ_Dipsy I've been taking A LOT of elbowing penalties with the new hitting mechanics, so I've started making a majority of my hits hip checks because its so much easier.

@RelentlessJ69 so they took out the the cheesy arcade hits and now we are exploiting the hipcheck I see..
- RelentlessJ692 years agoSeasoned Hotshot@TasteofChicago91 If everyone else is gonna do it, why not? They never should have messed with the hitting mechanics. The other new controls, I have no problem with.

Hitting for me has been too big of a risk for the reward. Not saying it should go back to how it was but being left SO far out of position isn't good. I'm just really tired of the offense getting all the advantages and all the assistance. The defense ONLY had hitting and now most defensemen just give up low danger shots and hope the rebound goes in their favor. Defense is in a pretty bad place.
