This is one of the more "video game" changes I don't mind having in this. If every stick could trip someone in the game you would have 100 trips a game. Would just be a little too much so they only matter if you are poking the puck carrier. I am all for a simulation style skill based game, but this I don't mind being in the game (or rather not in the game).

Well... that's the point really. If you're controlling a player and poke check a player without the puck. It is a penalty. Currently this game is way too arcade like.
I'm sure you would have a different opinion if your opponent poke checks through your team mate's skates to get the puck off you. It happens all the time.
I get it's a video game but making poor timed defensive plays that still get rewarded is silly.
This game is supposed to be competitive. People play for money and this type of thing is just unacceptable.
