@TTZ_DipsyIt's the frequency of the use and the outcome that's the issue here, lol. Three people tried to hip-check him back to back to back. Now imagine a team that can utilize the hip-check at any time throughout the whole game, all the time. We got tired of it being done to us, so we learned how to do it ourselves. Again, it's the easiest way to separate the puck from the player. Easier than a shoulder check. Easier than a shove. Easier than a poke check. That's a problem.

Perfect demonstration of how bad it is and how top teams will utilize it.
