    It's hard to say exactly what happened on the play. Initially, it looks like maybe your player was hustling and that elbow movement could've just been the arm swinging motion of the hustle animation? Perhaps you did use the RS, but the game just didn't recognize the input?

    Regardless, I do think this play is something the dev team should look at. Regardless of whether you used the RS to initiate a hit, two players skating at each other like that in real life would have one or both players colliding into a heap on the ice. It makes no sense that the offensive player there should be completely unphased by the contact to the point of not even losing the puck.

    Do you by any chance know what the bodychecking/strength/balance and weight of your player's build was in this video? That could give some insight into what happened.

I think/intended that I used the hit input but obviously after the fact it is tough to tell :)  Where I think it gets extra tricky is that the "raise hands" that you'd usually look for aren't obvious because it's also triggering the ragdoll animation. At 18 seconds or so, you'll see the elbow raise and I think that's likely where the hit input was.
