They can't do this because on defence you need to be able to shove players to disrupt the play. You are also often holding vision on D to face the puck. So if it negated the shove, it would take one of the D's key weapons.
They may be able to key it based on zone however.. if they can do that then it's fine. As long as D can still use vision and shove at same time.

In '23, you were able to hold LT to negate body checking in the O-Zone while also still being able to utilize LT and and shove in the D-Zone.
