Re: Interference penalties trying to shoot rebounds
@hiperayit's unrealistic because nobody has ever gotten an interference call when they are trying to shoot it makes no sense. In real life both players are fighting to chop at the puck which is MUCH more realistically represented by players slapping up on their stick, to bat in a goal or bat away a rebound on defence that by awkwardly standing around waiting to see who randomly picks it up. That does not happen in the NHL. Yeah its frantic and mindless in some ways but so is REAL HOCKEY. Have you ever watched? Players don't awkwardly stand around waiting when a puck is infront of the net, they go crazy trying to wack at it.
Either way in NO WAY would they EVER get an interference penalty when attempting a rebound. That looks so unrealistic. I am a defenceman and I have definitely enjoyed baiting people into interfering with me on accident but I know it doesn't belong in the game. Thats not hockey.
