Thats where the serie took a wrong turn. You straight up victimizing that dman. In real life, players have 100% control of their body, they only have themself to blame if the puck goes through. If the player is in good position, and spent a reasonable amount of attribute points, he should 100% get the puck, the onus should be on the passer to not force it. Otherwise it's neither realistic nor fair outcome for the defender in a competitive videogame.

Community ManagerHow is it realistic for a player to 100% intercept the puck? There are instances where they don't make interceptions in the real world despite good positioning. I also see more intercepts than not in the game. Good positioning is very often rewarded. Many of the videos we get also show reaction time being the issue. When passes come from too close to the defender. I'm not saying that's the case here, but it's also something to keep in mind when feeling like a pass should have been intercepted.
