This is with 97 defensive awareness and gold quick pick. Slow pass, I'm backskating looking up ice, anticipating pass knowing it's gonna go through me but wanted to capture the video to show why you never aggressively risk cutting the lane.
More pucks just bouncing off of skates and away from you with 97 defensive awareness and gold quick pick:

And here is what happens when you should just give up on defense because why even bother when offense can play as bad as they want. Pokecheck is bad to start it off with, then they pass it directly to me twice and both times I don't get control (but you know they would if they received the pass of course):
Gold quick pick (aka the puck deflector):

Also is this not the purpose of equipping quick pick right here???? It's gold...
This was a great play. Your player deflected a pass. What's your problem here?

You're in full stride and the pass was a sauce. Had you have been in a glide, you may have intercepted, but the well played sauce pass makes that debatable.
I see nothing wrong in

You DID gain control:

Then proceeded to skate directly into your opponent who poked it away from you.

And again, if that's an offensive player there's zero forced slow pickup animation. When you put all of those stats and perks and you can't pick up something clean while offense can 100% of the time it's ridiculous.
"Hey it took a full second to accept the puck while guys are skating at you, that's good enough!”
