Hockey Stick
Is there a reason why the stick on this game only gets stuck on defense but can shoot directly through someone on offense? So many times on defense my stick can get stuck on someone and it screws me ...

Community ManagerHello. The puck can't be affected by the stick when it's passing through a player. So, the stuck doesn't get stuck on them when shooting, but the shot is nullified.
I am aware how it works, MY POINT if you would actually read the post is why does your stick ONLY get stuck on the defensive side and not on offense? We all know EA hates defense because they nerf it every year to appease the fan boys who love having 4-5 points a game but it makes zero sense (Like everything other decision made by this company) Just make a hockey game.

We don't nerf defense every year. Yeah, it's a challenging position to play, but there are many of us not really having any issues defending. I'd love for the slow down when poking to be gone, but otherwise, if you pay attention to how your opponents are playing and adapt, defenders are very capable of stopping the most skilled forwards.
You're the first person to bring up the stick only getting stuck on defense. So far, it hasn't been an issue. Especially with forwards losing the puck when their stick clips through objects/bodies. I'll watch for more feedback on this. Thanks.

It still gives the offense an easier route to regain or, at least, fight for the puck meanwhile the defender has to reel his stick from further away before he can hope to make a play or even deter one.
