@Nasher355The problem is that the big builds can be hit so easily is the real problem. If you were rocking a 6'3'' 220 power forward with like mid 80 balance and 90 strength you should be a god at avoiding hits and protecting the puck better. But we have the hipcheck which negates anything and everything. We also allow small players with super low checking stats to be able to move around any player no matter their size.
Sadly this was done because when big players did dominate they couldn't be hit and LT-ing existed back then. So in other words Checking attributes need to matter way more and be toned down at the same time.
But it's just like FIFA where speed dominates because well that is not a contact sport for the most part.
In other words we need to back to the it's too hard to hit and knock the puck off big boys era again.
